Amish Experience Visit-In-Person Tour


Stop 1: Amish FarmWhen we arrive at the farm, we enter the barn to learn about the milking process firsthand. You may be surprised to learn that the Amish do not milk cows by hand. You will also discover how milk is kept cold in the bulk tank with “Amish electricity.” Other aspects of farm life may also be included.Stop 2: Amish “Cottage Industry”With the price and scarcity of farmland, many Amish have started their own small enterprises, making everything from gazebos and furniture to farm equipment and quilts. These “home businesses” have become the subject of books and articles emphasizing the balance these entrepreneurs achieve between work and family. Our visit may be to a harness or carriage maker, basket weaver, greenhouse, leather or wood worker, among others. An actual demonstration is normally a part of this fascinating stop.Stop 3: Amish Home VisitTo conclude our evening, we travel scenic backroads to a distant farm in the countryside. As we step inside the house, we find that friendly conversation awaits as we sit, chat, and visit the way the Amish do, talking informally without TVs, IPhones or computers. It comes as no surprise that strangers soon become friends.Additional InformationConfirmation will be received at time of bookingTransportation by 14-passenger bus is provided between locations of the tourNo children under the age of 6 on this tourPlease dress respectfullyWe ask that no photographs be taken of our Amish hostsPlease check in at the theater box office, east parking lot, at least 15 minutes before your tourInclusionsEntrance fees and taxesLocal guideTransportation between locationsExclusionsFood and drinksDeparture PointAmish Experience at Plain Fancy FarmDeparture Time5pm Monday – Saturday Additional tours at 10:30am and 2:30pm in July and AugustDuration3 hoursVoucher InfoYou can present either a paper or an electronic voucher for this activity.The tour identified in this promotion is made available through Viator.
