| The food is great but the beauty of the farms is more enjoyable! Here we are in front of a buggie. |

Left - One of the farms we visited. The OId Order Amish are great farmers. They are also good at other things, like carpentry. On this farm there was a gift shop selling beautiful home made quilts, jams/jellies and furniture. Here the children are playing with a goat. During our one day tour, we stop to have lunch at Good 'N Plenty. The name speaks for itself. |

A typical farm. This was taken from a calendar. Mostly seen growing are corn and alfalfa, and some tobacco. During our one day tour, we visit towns with names like Bird-In-Hand, Intercourse, and Paradise. We visit farms, stop at a farmers' market, and Kitchen Kettle. Want to learn more about the Amish?

| Here we are seated by the ice cream store in Kitchen Kettle. Kitchen Kettle is a mall (tourist trap?). |

October 28, 2006 Left, Elton while visiting one of the farms. Right, the farm that can be seen from Kitchen Kettle's parking lot. Below, pumpkins, etc., being sold at Eli's Road Stand. |





The Countryside Road Stand, also called Eli's Road Stand. At left is what it looked like before. It was a small shack loaded with lots of local goods. At right is the new stand. The local guide calls the new stand the "Amish Wal-Mart". It appears the Amish are making money from the tourists that visit! Supposedly, the goods sold here are made by the members of the community. The stand is located at 2966 Stumptown Road, Ronks, PA. These are photos from brochures picked up at the Stand. Eli's farm and home are next to the stand. |
