Green County Barn Quilt Tour and Cheesemaking Museum

Spend a seasonal autumn day exploring the rolling hills of Green County! Local docents will join us on the bus as we tour the countryside and admire numerous colorful quilts painted on the side of area barns. We will conclude the morning with a visit to a working dairy farm where we will see local farm animals. Lunch buffet will follow at the historic Turner Hall in Monroe. After lunch, we will learn the history of local cheesemaking with a presentation at the National Historic Cheesemaking Center and Museum. Our last stop will be the Alp and Dell Cheese Store, where we will have a tour and can purchase cheese and other food items before our journey back to Milwaukee. Members will be asked to contribute to a bus driver tip with cash.

Meet at Bayshore Park & Ride, 5725 N. Port Washington Rd., Glendale or State Fair Park & Ride, W. Adler St., Milwaukee to board the charter bus with the group.
