(UNDATED) – If you love shopping and searching for hidden treasures, then traveling along U.S. 12 this weekend could be just for you!
The U.S. 12 Heritage Trail Garage Sale, called Michigan’s Longest Garage Sale, runs today through Sunday.
Every year individuals clean out their attics and stake out their front yards along the U.S. 12 corridor stretching over 180 miles from New Buffalo to Detroit. You will find everything from antiques, collectibles, furniture, dishware, fresh garden produce, homemade jams and jellies, live entertainment and much more.
Perhaps even more interesting than the “treasures” are the people you will meet on your journey. The sales can be found along the highway at homes, farms, businesses, parking lots and fields. Some areas will have large numbers of vendors while others may be scattered.
As you drive the country roads on your quest, you will be privy to incredible stories related to the individuals and the items they sell and see a plethora of items that only your grandmother could love.
Most importantly most come to see the unusual and socialize, as this is Americana at its best.
A reminder that as you travel U.S. 12 this weekend to please drive safely and pay special attention when parking and crossing the highway during the sale.
