Topeka Blvd., (the main entrance of Forbes Field) Welcome to the Kansas Flint Hills Quilt Trail! Driving through the countryside anywhere in the world you will likely come across many barns. They drape the country in a multitude of designs, colors and architecture. Some barns are painted to display advertisements. However, a woman named Donna Sue Groves, from Adams County, Ohio wanted to honor her mother by hanging a colorful painted quilt block on her barn. Instead of just one quilt block, she began a community project with twenty quilt blocks being displayed along a driving trail to encourage visitors to travel through the countryside. This was the start of the first quilt trail in America. Quilt trails are organized all across the country. Quilt blocks are displayed on barns around the countryside and mapped out for tourists to follow these amazing works of art. Join us on a scenic journey through the Flint Hills countryside to celebrate the piecing together of beautiful quilt patterns, agricultural heritage, agricultural history and culture, and promoting agritourism and rural pride. In celebration of Kansas Day, on January 29, all guests will receive free admission to the museum to view the exhibit!

Food. We love it, fear it, and obsess about it. We demand that our Government ensure that it is safe, cheap, and abundant. In response, Government has been a factor in the production, regulation, research, innovation, and economics of our food supply. It has also attempted, with varying success, to change the eating habits of Americans. From the farm to the dinner table, explore the records of the National Archives that trace the Government’s effect on what Americans eat.

KB Mudjacking LLC. of Perry Kansas has inspected many foundation problems in our careers, and if only people knew how to care for their foundations they could have avoided thousands of dollars in repair cost or minimized their damage. Cafe Holliday 800 SW 12th St 232-2188 The primary reason so many people have foundation problems lay beneath their feet, its called “highly expansive clay soil”. Movement of foundations is a common problem in northeast Kansas, due to highly expansive clay soil and changing weather conditions. This drought continues to plague us all. As the moisture content reduces in the soil due to this drought the clay shrinks and your foundation, walkways, and driveways settle. Do you have windows and doors that won’t close? Does your basement wall have cracks? Do you think your house is falling down around you? Is money tight? Then you came to the right place!! Whatever structure you need repaired, big or small KB Mudjacking LLC a locally family owned and operated Mudjacking and Foundation Repair Company will be there for your repairs at the lowest possible cost, and help you regain your properties value. There are no tricks up our sleeves, just good old fashion tried and proven construction methods that have been time tested to fix your foundation issues. So don’t put it off any longer that only leads to further damage and costly repairs. Give KB Mudjacking a call today and one of the Keating Brothers themselves will visit you soon.
