Hubby and I just "dropped in" on a whim when we were out on the Nebraska Passport Tour - talk about a really unique place! This large semi-circle of open grain bins just filled with the coolest antiques, 2 large barns chock full, with a really neat wooden walkway to stroll around. You get to walk in and out of the grain bins (each with a unique perspective - antique tools in one, hobbies in another etc.) Had a really great time strolling around, we found some really neat items. If you are in North Platte, you simply must stop by just to experience it, whether you are into antiques or not. (curious to see if they decorate for the holidays..... hmmmm.......... that would be a really awesome sight!)

Pat and Lori Clinch used an old grain bin from the 1930s as sort of an extra room. They used the wooden structure to sit and take in the panoramic view of the valley and trees near their home.Friends seemed to enjoy the time they spent in the bin, Lori said.Unbeknownst to her, Pat had a plan. The Clinches learned that a farmer had 14 of the bins on his property, and they were for sale.They bought all 14. Lori thought they might sell them for others to use them like they did. The government provided farmers with the wooden bins during the Depression to help store crops.Pat suggested keeping them and using them to store antiques, as in selling antiques. Thus, was born the Grain Bin Antique Town, southeast of North Platte.The antique market opened August 2013 with 16 Depression-era grain bins. The market had its grand opening in May once all the bins had antiques stocked for selling. Several of the bins are stocked by other vendors.The grain bin market has a boardwalk, with some of the wood coming from an old grade school building. I felt like I was in an old west town walking on the boardwalk.The market offers some unique items – from old military uniforms to an old sofa.The view of the area is beautiful. The antique town is adjacent to the Clinch home. The views of the valleys on either side of the property are breathtaking in my view. Pat is working on building an observation deck in the market’s main building. That will be a great view of the area.The Grain Bin Antique Town is located on Old Highway 83. Part of the drive is on gravel roads. It’s a short drive from town, and worth the trip.
