ELKHART COUNTY, Ind. – Elkhart County’s Quilt Gardens are returning to the area with 16 quilt-patterned gardens in Elkhart, Goshen, Nappanee, Wakarusa, Middlebury, and Bristol.

2021 marks the 14th year for this attraction and the 1st year for the Quilt Gardens site at The Barns at Nappanee.

“This is the perfect way for Elkhart County’s creative and collaborative residents and businesses to welcome the summer, including the visitors who will come here to enjoy our vibrant downtowns and rural spaces, soak in a little bit of our rich history and artistic vibe, and have a great stay here,” said Jon Hunsberger, executive director of the ECCVB.

The Quilt Gardens are free and open to all from May 30 to September 15.

A free 90-minute audio driving tour guide can be picked up at the Elkhart County Visitor Center and area hotels. Click here for a map of this year’s Gardens.
