Sunflowers shine on new mural in Pemberville
PEMBERVILLE, Ohio — A few miles past a sign welcoming visitors to the sleepy village of Pemberville, Ohio, people are greeted by a striking new mural on the feed mill at the intersection of Bierley Avenue and East Front Street. Standing 80 feet tall, the Countyline Co-Op feed mill has been carefully painted with a field of sunflowers overlooking a river. In the background sits a classic red barn, as a bald eagle flies past fluffy, sunlit clouds.
