First measurable snow fall of 2024 made the property quite pretty. Not enough snow to cause problems. Didn't even really lay on the macadam. But the grassy areas got a nice sugary, fluffy blanket.

Goats love to climb. It is just in their nature. Birds fly. Fish swim. Goats climb. Most Amish families who have goats keep them for dairy, or simply as pets (like these two.)

November brings some schedule changes for us. Because it gets dark earlier, we drop our 4:00pm farmlands tour, and we move the VIP (Visit-in-Person) tour to 2:30pm (instead of 5:00pm.) Also, the VIP (Visit-in-Person) tour departs on Saturdays only in November.

Wedding Season is just around the corner. Amish families with soon-to-be-wed daughters are preparing furiously for the upcoming occasion. Nearly all Amish weddings will take place on Tuesdays and Thursdays late October through at least March. As the Amish population continues to grow, the wedding season expands as well.

Amish Wedding Season is just around the corner. In a few short weeks you'll see the tell-tale signs of Amish couples tying the knot. At least on Tuesdays and Thursdays. One aspect of an Amish wedding... lots of food. Prepared by the family or the family's helpers. In this picture, we see four ovens. Would an Amish family really have four ranges? No. They'll borrow or rent additional cook stoves for the wedding, so that they can make the volume of food needed to satisfy a guest list of hundreds. Wedding customs, and many more topics, are covered on our guided tours.

This Amish workshop uses compressed air to run all their equipment, including the fan to cool off the area.
