Fun, kitschy little Amish store in the middle of nowhere. Wide selection of cheeses, meats, jams, candies, and more. Decorating with a mish-mosh of antiques, a couple old motorcycles. Worth a special trip once, decide for yourself if there's a next t...
This is a neat place, take the kids, walk back into time, fried pies, baked goid. And even a little farm set up for little ones, gold rush display is there. A chocolate & confectionery goods store also on premises.
This place is definitely worth stopping for! The baked goods are the best (Cinnamon Rolls!!) and a stroll through the store will most likely turn up something else that you didn't know that you wanted to buy. Well worth the trip!
Great place to stop for lunch and grab a burger, load up on Fry Pies, and sample homemade goods. Plus, they have other random novelty goods and activities for littles.
