My ancestors were among the first immigrants in 1724. My family history has been documented in print form since that time.I am not amish but my great grandparents were.The best food without question in the US is here.
My Grandma lived not so far from Lancaster. Been to the Farmers Market many times. Most beautiful produce and handwork, i.e. quilts etc. wonderful deli meats and food. Grandma is gone now so I doubt I'll ever be back to PA.
This is exactly how the Lancaster Central Market started, which is the oldest running Amish market since 1930. We were just there Easter weekend. Even one of the best restaurants in Pennsylvania had a stand there ~ The Shady Maple. I love how everyone comes together and sells their fresh produce. Here’s our family video visiting the market. ua-cam.com/video/goQ9BIc4F64/v-deo.html
Renninger's Market in Pennsylvania was the one closest to where I grew up in northeast PA. It was open every Wednesday and featured Amish/Penn Dutchy farmers selling produce. There was also an auction. The candy section was second to none, most of it homemade (fudge, etc.). When I was last home on a visit, it was the one place where I could find stamped embroidery linens of all sorts at a fraction of what one would pay in a craft store (if you can even find them).
beautiful some of the items look as if they were shipped not picked? most is looking good for sure. I know some mennonites personally. very good hardworking people. thank you htgde
I have a great deal of respect for the Amish and their customs. However, I can't ever get over how they puppymill and overbreed neglected dogs for money. That seems like a bigger crime to me than having electricity.
I recently saw a documentary on that. Very disturbing.The Bible tells us to be kind to animals. Proverbs 12:10 ESV Whoever is righteous has regard for the life of his beast, but the mercy of the wicked is cruel. They aren't too keen to preach even though they are told to in the Bible: Matthew 28:19 (NIV)19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, Out of deep respect for their religion, I attempted to give a contribution to their church and was told that they could not accept it because I am not of their religion even though I revealed that I have accepted Jesus as Lord and savior. But his deacon told him to give me back my ten dollars. Well, gee! That sure doesn't stop them from accepting my money for their products though-does it?. Then, when I conversed decently with a young Amish lady and asked about how they processed their chickens. She said she feels nauseous if assigned to chop off their heads.Trying to be helpful, I suggested that she tell the people in charge about her symptoms so they could assign her to something else. She immediately looked extremely offended. Then she spread the lie that I had told her to leave the Amish religion. Proverbs 3:30 ►NIV Do not accuse anyone for no reason-- when they have done you no harm. Now many Amish women working behind the counters give me an intense suspicious look, the cold shoulder and start to walk away at my approach. Seems like they should teach their kids that defamation is a sin. If this continues I will take the matter to their deacon. After all, if indeed he is their shepherd, then he should be aware that certain members of his flock are spreading lies about an innocent person and that definitely is not in harmony with being like Christ. If indeed I had suggested that, then OK. But I definitely did NOT. Christians must always be careful that they are not unwittingly imitating the Devil instead of Christ. Mark 9:42 ► "If anyone causes one of these little ones--those who believe in me--to stumble, it would be better for them if a large millstone were hung around their neck and they were thrown into the sea. John 8:44 New International Version You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father's desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies.
When ever I drive on Route 30 I always see the Amish using a bike but never pedaling. That rule seems so foolish. Is there a ruler that God said "though shall not pedal bicycles? If some Amash man made up this rule, its a crazy to follow it!
i feel bad for green dragon. but then again i haven't been there in years. last time i was in green dragon, it was nothing but a bunch of flea market/trinkety stuff. and the produce was disappearing
Roots is the place to go if you want produce. The Green Dragon is more of a mixed bag, and is smaller. The food stands at Green Dragon are much better though.
They aren't supposed to ride in cars or use modern appliances either but when it comes to making a buck, then they sure as hell cut themselves a lot of slack. They arrive and leave in cars at the Broad Street Market in Harrisburg PA four times a week not buggies, at the market four times a week. They also use blenders, modern ovens to process their foods. Also, if they indeed are averse to photos and videos, then why do I find them photographed on the Internet and on many videos on youtube?
If i hear cxorrect I can hear a lady (guess the old one) say something like "A water melon" and then a man (maybe the seller) said "a melon". So maybe the wife paid for the melon and the old man took it :-)
I love the description... 'Amish/Mennonites Farmers Market' as if it is there just because of or for the Amish and Mennonites. It would be like going to a mall in a place where a lot of African Americans live and saying it's an African American mall. It's silly. People work and shop at the Green dragon because they live near it; not because of their culture or religious beliefs.
Ah yes the Amish market,where people think they grow it all and charge a premium price yet the Amish buy it a local Restaurant Depot and upcharge the HELL out of it!

I LOVE going to Green Dragon! I always plan on buying more than what I went to buy.
This Lewisburg Farmer's Market!! Grew up in this area and worked there every Wednesday! Super place !!
Lewis burg and when it's open?
Did not see any bananas at the farmer's market but right at the end I saw some "locally grown" pineapples. LOL
and lemons
If I could start over I'd choose the Mennonites way of living hopefully in my next lifetime?

Candy Renee Not so. It's Green Dragon in Ephrata, PA in Lancaster County.
Wow! I wish I could be there!
So much yummy looking fruit and veg! (And too many plastic bags!).
When ever I drive on Route 30 I always see the Amish using a bike but never pedaling. That rule seems so foolish. Is there a ruler that God said "though shall not pedal bicycles? If some Amash man made up this rule, its a crazy to follow it!
Thats looking good,like to visit ones,I love the way they live,maybe I go overthere in october.
THIS IS THE LEWISBURG Farmers market in UNION COUNTY, PA!!!!!

Where is this!
those veggies look great
Does anybody have the address to this market and on what schedule do they meet
Where is this
Where is this market
But some looks more as a fleamarket - but I wonder me the tons of plastic and trucks there. Is this be normal at the Armish People this time?
everything is so big...I'd love to know what kind of fertilizer they use
I think animal manure, mostly, and compost.
i'm wondering why amish folks don't sell waygu (kobi beef)?i reaize they (people of japen) are asking quite a bit of money-just wondering
Where is this market located ?
nice
If you want a rude awakening concerning the Amish just Google "Amish puppy mills."
The Amish don’t like to be photographed or videotaped. They consider it making a graven image of themselves. Maybe next time you can respect that.
Looked like every one there has had PLENTY to eat for years!
Oh HEY @TOPCAMERAMAN i wanted to know where was this place located
+DJ JOHNNY Ephrata Pennsylvania. The place is called The Green Dragon Farmers Market. If you google it, you will find it.
Looks more like Rootz market to me. Over in Manheim
Farmall Red I agree, looks like Rootz to me too!
You might be right. I think I am wrong now that I looked at the video again. My apologies.
this is the Lewisburg farmers market in UNION County, PA
You do know you do not supposed to take pictures of them that is very rude because you do not have their permission
which mgt. is this?
From what I learned, the Amish people don't like being on video or having their pics taken.
They aren't supposed to ride in cars or use modern appliances either but when it comes to making a buck, then they sure as hell cut themselves a lot of slack. They arrive and leave in cars at the Broad Street Market in Harrisburg PA four times a week not buggies, at the market four times a week. They also use blenders, modern ovens to process their foods.
Also, if they indeed are averse to photos and videos, then why do I find them photographed on the Internet and on many videos on youtube?
did you see the old guy steal the watermelon?
I noticed that too?! Are we just city minded or did he?!
looked that way to me. And if you notice, as soon as he takes it, the old lady walks in front of the camera and it looks like he leaves with her.
If i hear cxorrect I can hear a lady (guess the old one) say something like "A water melon" and then a man (maybe the seller) said "a melon". So maybe the wife paid for the melon and the old man took it :-)
suzanne Baker he is the owner
Easy to steal from a place that don’t use modern technology like a phone how do they call the cops?
I love the description... 'Amish/Mennonites Farmers Market' as if it is there just because of or for the Amish and Mennonites. It would be like going to a mall in a place where a lot of African Americans live and saying it's an African American mall. It's silly.

Great market, but for goodness sake, don't any of these people carry reusable shopping bags? Way too much plastic.
Where is that
Address please
aki es donde yo vivo !
Green Dragon I believe.
Ah yes the Amish market,where people think they grow it all and charge a premium price yet the Amish buy it a local Restaurant Depot and upcharge the HELL out of it!
Have to wonder who down-votes these videos?
We recycle the plastic bags in America that's a fact!!!
Green Dragon...
it's root's market!
onetwocue Nope. It's Green Dragon in Ephrata, PA. I've been there many times.
lewisburg
