Finding Amish stores and products
From modest roadside stand selling canned goods to vast retail showrooms harboring acres of Amish-made household furniture, Amish products can be found in a wide variety of venues. You may have encountered an Amish product while on vacation in an Amish community. You may have purchased furniture, quilts or other Amish-made goods online. You may be searching for businesses in a specific community, or the nearest provider of a certain good to your home.
As you travel in Amish communities, you’re sure to notice roadside signs pointing the way down long farm lanes to workshops, retail stores and bakeries often housed adjacent to the Amish home. Others will refrain from visiting Amish settlements, instead searching for Amish business signs pointing the way to venues selling Amish products online.
Geographically-ordered listings in the guides included here (organized by state) are meant to make locating a seller of Amish products fast and easy. The businesses listed here are both Amish-owned (noted when known) and non-Amish dealers of Amish products. Addresses, phone numbers, and websites, when relevant, are provided.
Some Amish companies may have a web presence thanks to cooperation with English partners, or may rely on an English-owned website to retail their goods. The non-Amish companies listed in these directories typically maintain close relationships with Amish manufacturers, allowing them to cooperate to produce goods in response to changing tastes.
Amish quiltmakers for example create quilts in both traditional styles, but also in more modern designs, as well as related products that have become popular among English customers, such as quillows or patchwork bags. An Amish furniture craftsman can design a new line of furniture in response to feedback given directly to him by customers, or if he is a wholesaler, channeled via a non-Amish retailer with whom he works.
In this manner Amish companies not only craft products aligned with Amish tradition, but also adapt to satisfy demands of their often highly non-Amish clientele. Interestingly, even those businesses which may seem to be strictly Amish-oriented in fact do a fair share of work for non-Amish. For example, an Amish buggy shop may also do some restoration of turn-of-the-century era cars (a time when the “horseless carriage” wasn’t so drastically different in design from today’s Amish buggy). Harness shops may do work for English horse owners, and horse-drawn equipment makers produce implements both for Plain farmers and English hobby farming enthusiasts.
Amish Businesses across America
The landscape of Amish occupations looks markedly different than it did for Amish forefathers of the 18th and 19th centuries. While agriculture remains a mainstay in many Amish communities, today thousands of Amish households provide a number of goods and services via home-based businesses. Amish business is a relatively recent phenomenon with roots in the mid-20th century, developing a full head of steam through the 1990s and into the 21st century.
Home enterprises have filled a gap which has arisen due to high land prices and large families pricing many Amish out of the market for traditional dairy farming. New generations of Amish business owners who, unlike their predecessors, never grew up on a farm, are founding businesses and taking over family firms in what is becoming for some a generational family tradition of entrepreneurship.
An Amish business may be as unassuming as an Amish housewife crafting candles in spare moments between taking care of household and children, to large Amish mini-factories employing dozens of workers and dedicated marketing and sales teams.
Most Amish businesses lie somewhere in the middle, existing as a small-scale means of providing a living for a single household. Amish businesses may be owned and operated by males, females, or both in husband-wife partnerships. Most commonly Amish men steer enterprises which employ family or neighbors in a locally-oriented environment.
Common among Amish companies are businesses in the woodworking, construction, and manufacturing sectors. Market stands thrive in the Mid-Atlantic region, typically operated by Pennsylvania Amish in and around large metropolitan areas of Baltimore, Philadelphia, New Jersey and beyond. Crafts remain a strong sector for Amish females, with Amish women doing skilled craft work such as clothes making or quilting in their spare time and in some cases operating full-fledged full-time companies.
Some Amish businesspeople operate in more obscure fields as well. Taxidermists, house movers, electricians (yes, electricians), accountants, health store owners, bookbinders, beekeepers and casket makers are all among the less-common enterprises occasionally seen on the Amish landscape. Though they restrict formal education, Amish have shown a knack for entrepreneurship often coming up with creative ideas for business ventures.
When you buy Amish-made products and services, you are helping to support Amish families who have adapted to a new entrepreneurial tradition likely to persist for generations to come. Likewise, many Amish-made products will last for generations themselves, offering value for decades to come.

need panniers for llamas
HI Folks, The person who made panniers for my packing business has decided she is too old, which may be true for me also. However I have her panniers and would like to replicate them. I would be willing to pay for the product, and sell them when customers want to buy more. I hate to let the design of these panniers fade into the past. If I can find someone with an industrial sewing machine interested in making them, the demand for the product is there. Thanks for listening. John

Post and Rail fencing
I am looking for help on replacement and repair of a split rail fence. All the posts are good, and at least 6” round. It is a serious wood fence that needs someone knowledgeable in farm fence. It has chain link on it., and a tension wire thru bottom. I am in need of person/persons to give it an update. Some posts need straightened at back side. It will need new wood in some parts . There is a possibility of also removing the chain-link and three tier split rail, and just doing a farm fence in wire. I am in western PA. Near border of Ohio and W.VA. I would love anyone that can reach out with experience in this type of fence. There maybe a gate needed also. I can photo anything you want to see.
Thank you kindly.

I Love Amish Country in and around Lancaster, PA, and I Visit Often.
I live approximately one hour away from PA Amish country, and I absolutely love to visit the Lancaster PA region. There are too many towns to list but my favorites are Morgantown, Honey Brook, East Earl, and New Holland. Spring through late fall are the best months for the abundant road side produce stands and buildings. Plus most have an amazing greenhouse attached where I’ll find beautiful flowering plants and almost any kind of garden item you could want. I’ll drive a two lane state road, say route 23 from Honey Brook through East Earl, maybe a 10 mile stretch, and I’ll happen upon numerous small businesses that are so attractive I can’t help but stop at every one. Produce, flowering plants, and bajed goods are most common. There are surprises in every place of goid things. Google is overflowing with more options and it is a really big help that suggests similar places to explore than those that I already know. I love the Amish country because there is no foul language, no skimpy dressed women or me, and no litter or trash. This is the simple truth. I visit there as often as I like because it is very dignified and calm. I dislike the big obnoxious stores that sell mass produced merchandise and has rude shoppers who act entitled and very materialistic. I mean this is the exact opposite of a Walmart experience. Because the Amish & Mennonite stores and greenhouses are very rooted in nature, I believe they attract a different kind of customer who is very much like me. I really enjoy striking up conversations with other customers and the staff and store owners. It is always a pleasant experience. I admit I’m addicted to going to Amish country. I definitely agree with the statement to follow the small hand made signs with an arrow directing to a store or farm down the road. Some of the best places that I have discovered are completely by accident. Sometimes when looking for a place that a fellow shopper suggested I’ll find new places along the way, and all are great in their own merit. I think it’s a wonderful thing that Amish and English work together and coexist and succeed in a way that doesn’t happen in many parts of the US.
