Amish Markets – Pennsylvania
Amish markets across PA
Pennsylvania is home to many Amish markets, from PA Dutch markets with Amish vendors in cities such as Philadelphia or Allentown, to farm markets located in Lancaster County and elsewhere. Lancaster County itself is home to many of the Amish vendors who travel to off-site markets in Pennsylvania and other states.
In multi-vendor suburban/urban markets, Amish stands typically are open three days per week (Thurs-Fri-Sat), though schedules may vary, with some being open additional days (if uncertain, check with the market itself via contact info given below).
You’ll find info for two dozen PA Amish markets below.

Amish stores
What about typical Amish “general” stores? Such as:
East Drumore Foods
Little Britain rd
Quarryville, Pa 17566
or
Pleasant Valley Store
429 Sproul Rd
Kirkwood, Pa 17536
I shop store like these quite often, I know listing Farms that sell eggs and produce and such is impossible,We also shop at Amish nurseries too, like:
Maple Shade Road Greenhouse
451 Maple Shade Rd
Kirkwood, pa 17536
Would be nice for these types of businesses were also listed, not just the tourist trap markets.
Smaller PA Amish stores
Bill I agree the smaller Amish stores need to be listed as well, though probably in a different section.
Right now we have a mix of markets/stores above, though a lot of them are of the PA Dutch market model with a number of Amish vendors under one roof–though a few might fit the description, I’m not sure “tourist traps” is an accurate description of a lot of these places. Ideally this would be just the PA Dutch farmer’s market listings with those smaller free standing stores going somewhere else.
If you or anyone else would like to compile such as list of smaller Amish food category stores I’d be glad to use it to build a new page. I have that on the list of things to do but have not gotten to yet.
Anyway I appreciate the comment; the reason I deleted the other comment you left is because it was identical info as this, and since these are PA businesses, would rather have it posted here than in the general market section.
Small Amish Markets
I would love the list of smaller Amish food category stores since we are very soon going to be making a trip to the Lancaster area and plan on trying to find some of the smaller Amish run roadside markets and stores. I am especially interested in a genuine Amish run bakery.
Thanks,
Angela Gates
Amish bulk food stores

One of the bulk food suppliers has on online store locator. It’s a great help and source of information to find bulk food stores in any part of the United States, and match them up with zip codes from Amish settlements. For example, Kinzers, PA is 17535. Not all bulk food stores are Amish or Mennonite, but many are.

Thanks so much for the information.
List?
Hi,
Did you ever compile a list of the smaller stores? I am heading out to PA soon and I’d like to buy direct.I think my daughters would like the experience. I am looking for food and those round bowls they use as well as an Amish second hand store, if that exists.
I’m sorry, haven’t been able to do that. If there is a specific area you are going, maybe we can direct you to some places.

If you ever come to Holmes I’d be glad to give you a list of “Amish” stores in the area.
Angela Gates Small Amish Markets
I agree that the small markets should be listed. I live in Western PA. I never go to a market that says Amish in their name. They double and triple the price. Amish furniture is not cheap; however, it is worth it though in most cases, so it is better to go directly to the source. The produce and eggs are fresh and a fraction of the price. The baked goods are reasonably priced but usually amazing. I go to the Amish farms and their houses In New Wilmington and Atlantic PA. I find new ones all the time by following signs along the road.
Retailers of Supplements/Nutrition
I will be doing a sales trip out in the PA area, specifically targeting the Lancaster County area. I know some grocery stores sell supplements/herbs, but do you have a list or can you direct me to a list of businesses currently selling supplements? I’d love to make more specific travel arrangements to visit these locations. Thank you!
NEPA Amish Market
I am interested in opening an indoor Amish marketplace in NE Pennsylvania. Any suggestions as to vendor contacts? Thank-you.
Amish Markets-PA
Can you tell me the location of the Amish/Mennonite Farmers Market? I’ve seen the YouTube video of it but it doesn’t give the location. Thanks!
Root's Country Market
Wm., are you talking about Root’s Country Market?
705 Graystone Rd, Manheim, PA 17545
(717) 898-7811
http://www.rootsmarket.com/
Or do you mean a produce auction, or something else?
It would be interesting to know which YouTube you are referring to.
AMISH / MENNONITES FARMERS MARKET IN PENNSYLVANIA
Wm, I found a YouTube for “AMISH / MENNONITES FARMERS MARKET IN PENNSYLVANIA LANCASTER COUNTY, THE OLDEST.” The comments guess it to be either Green Dragon, Root’s Market, or “Lewisburg Farmer’s Market, Lewisburg, PA, Union County.Held every Wednesday.” The maker of the video said “THEY HOLD A FARMERS MARKET TWICE WEEKLY.” This mystery should be solved!

Amish Market on Route 15
Good evening, last fall my wife visited an Amish market on route 15, she would like to visit it again when we drive up from Virginia but cannot remember where it is.
Thank you.
Raymond, I don’t have an answer, just some clues about an Amish market on Route 15.
Weaver’s Farm Market & Bakery, Port Trevorton, Pa.:

Do you know in which county of Pennsylvania it was? Sometimes a road will have a second name as it goes through a town.

research
I am doing research on autism and I know the Amish have a very low rate compared to the general population. I’m wondering if some children are exposed to conditions outside of the home. Do parents of infants take them with them when they work at farmers markets or other such places? Thank you for your time and consideration. I hope to hear from you soon.
Oren
research
the Amish do not vaccinate. they also eat food that is grown with true sustainable farming methods. we ARE what we consume.
Oren,
That would be hard to determine. We used to do the farmer’s market. Sometimes a child or two would go with us, sometimes not. Friends of ours took their children along regularly while another family didn’t feel it was appropriate. There is going to be a big variety in that. Some of the variables might include where the market is, the time of year, the age of the child, the availability of babysitters or do one or both parents go, and so on.
