IN THE BEGINNING, there was the 1923 Feed Mill (including the warehouse). Clear out a few buildings, add the 1917 Montgomery Ward Home and then the 1927 Gordon Van Tine Barn. Put them all together and renovate – and then you have the Odin Craft Mill. (Photo courtesy of Odin Craft Mill)

 

An eclectic variety of products have been “warehoused” in the “Mill” in Odin over the course of the past several weeks in preparation for the spring shows of the Odin Craft Mill.

The shows will run from Thursday through Sunday, April 23-26, April 30 and May 1-3. Show hours are Thursday, Friday and Saturday – 10 a.m. to 7 p.m. and Sunday – 12 noon to 5 p.m.

There will be over 150 consignors from five states displaying yard art, jewelry and crafts – all in one place. Items will be spread throughout the authentic 1923 Odin Feed Mill, complete with the old grinding and mixing rooms (and the original equipment, including the over-head hoist and old warehouse – to the 1917 Montgomery Ward Home – to the 1927 Gordon Van Tine Barn with its original floors, wallpaper and woodwork.

Additionally, lunch is available  in the Feed Mill’s old warehouse.

The Odin Craft Mill was the brainchild of Nancy Olson of Butterfield. Olson manages the operation, and during show days, it is staffed by volunteers from the surrounding area.

Sunshine and warmer temperatures mean spring and summer are on the new horizon, and there will be plenty of merchandise selections for decorating for those seasons.
