Join us as we travel to Shipshewana for a fun and unique way to start your holidays. We will be joined by a local step-on guide to take us around the local back roads to visit Amish businesses and learn about the Amish way of life. Everyone will be given their own “stocking,” a decorated holiday bag, to stuff at each of our stops.

Our first stop will be at Riegsecker’s Blue Gate Restaurant for a small loaf of their homemade bread. You may also shop for other fine products here. There will be free time for browsing at the unique shops in downtown Shipshewana. Other stops on our journey of discovery include; Dutch Country Market for a bag of Katie’s Home Made Noodles, Das Kase Haus will provide us with a sample of their fine cheese. We will also visit E & S Bulk food Store.

You are bound to work up an appetite as you stuff your stocking at each of the stops. To keep up your energy we will have a thrasher meal served family style in Yoder’s Amish home.

Today is a great way to learn about the Amish way of life first hand. It is also a chance to take home some home made goodies. What a unique “stocking” you will have after this exciting day!
