Michigan’s largest garage sale taking place this weekend

(WNDU) - Michigan’s largest garage sale takes place every second week in August.

From New Buffalo to Detroit, over 200 miles and more than 250 sales are happening in yards, garages, and parking lots along U.S. 12 Heritage Trail.

The sales feature all kinds of items, from kitchen goods to knickknacks.

Started in 2003, many vendors have been participating in the sales for over ten years, and say it gets bigger every year.

“This is not a sale where you come and your eyes span what’s there and then you just say thank you and leave. This is not that kind of a sale. People come and they just keep bringing stuff to the table and say can I set this here while I go look a little bit more, and you know, so that’s how it goes,” sayd Barbara Dempsey, the Edwardsburg Museum’s Vice Chair.

While some sales ended Saturday, many, including the sales at the Edwardsburg Museum, will go until 4 p.m. on Sunday.
