We were driving down the road heading for a museum when this giant basket popped into view, and we had to stop and see it. :) I'd heard about Longaberger baskets but didn't know where they were located or that the original company was out of business. The baskets were sold through home parties, like Tupperware. They were popular in the 1980s and 90s but as decorating tastes changed sales dropped and the company filed for bankruptcy in 2018.
The giant basket was the company headquarters for 19 years. It's been empty for 10 years. It's still in good shape so hopefully someone will find a use for it before it starts deteriorating.
It's a really big basket! Basket 40.06376, -82.34666
