Sandusky County – July & September 2025
The Sandusky County Barn has both the distinction of being the last (88th) Barn painted as well as being the only barn to have the Logo painted on the roof. When I first drove by this area in July, I didn’t know that I was looking for a roof painting and so I thought the…

Warren County – September 23, 2025
Even though I had been looking for this Barn, I somehow managed to pass it, requiring me to find a turnaround a bit farther north. And even then I managed to miss the fact that the nice driveway at 6020 was not the entrance to the Barn. So it it was on the third try…

Hamilton County – September 23, 2025
Missing a few trees since Wilkinson visited, this weathered Barn on the eastern banks of the Great Miami River sits tall and proud. I’ve not explored the Great Miami River, choosing to follow the Buckeye Trail up the Little Miami on the other side of Cincinnati. Looking at the topography of the land, I wonder…

Mahoning County – September 6, 2025
I was traveling back into Ohio late Saturday afternoon from a brief trip to northern Virginia and decided to try and visit this Barn up close. I think the original long/lat I was using to navigate was incorrect, but I’ve adjusted the “Where to visit” directions, below. From the rear, it’s a very unassuming Barn,…

Lucas County (Extra) – September 3, 2025
This Barn is a mystery and needs some additional research. I don’t think it’s an official Bicentennial Barn. I became aware of this Barn through a Google Map that a fellow enthusiast left for us to find. A truck was pulling out from this farm when I arrived and I spoke with the owner, Jeff…

Lucas County – September 3, 2025
Needing some dinner before driving the rest of the way home, I stopped at the Crissey Road Food & Beverage Center across the street from where this Barn used to be. Yes, another Barn gone. According to the local scuttlebutt, the owner allowed his tenants to modify the Barn to install a car lift and,…

Wood County – September 3, 2025
Another drive-by of the Wood County Barn, twice in one day—coming and going. Where to view: east-bound i80/i90 (south side), about 1.5 miles east of i280 (41.51736, -83.44099)There is not a safe spot on i80/i90 to stop and take this Barn’s picture. Where to visit: 2416 Ohio Route 163 (Genoa Road), just east of Stony…

Ashland County – August 24, 2025
I was on my way back from from a Buckeye Trail hiking trip in southern Ohio today and it was my turn behind the wheel when we passed this well-situated Barn in Ashland County, so my hiking friend Rebecca took this photo. It’s too bad that the owners left off the logo when it was…

Geauga County – August 16, 2025
Headed home from working in and on my woods yesterday, I decided to take a slight detour and visit this Barn. Oddly enough, it was about a year to the day since my last visit. The silo seems about as worn in 2025 as it did in 2010, but it’s pretty clear the Barn’s logo…

Ashtabula County – August 16, 2025
I had planned to spend the day siding a shed, planting some trees and clearing some land and for some reason, my maps app sent me along i90 and US 11 before joining 322 (where I needed to be). This detour would give me an excellent excuse to check on this Barn. I’d heard that…
