Description: Gather ’Round the Heart of Amish Traditions

Step into a slower pace of life and experience a glimpse of Amish traditions with us.

We’ll begin together in the kitchen, preparing simple, homemade dishes side-by-side — just as the Amish do, where working together is as much a part of the gathering as the meal itself. As we cook and gather, you’ll have the opportunity to learn about everyday Amish life, explore old-fashioned skills, and hear how these timeless traditions still shape homes and hearts today.

After our cooking is done, we’ll sit down to share our meal — a reminder that food, fellowship, and community are at the heart of Amish living. You’ll experience not only the flavors of Amish cooking but the spirit of slowing down, working together, and savoring the simple things.

Please bring an apron and a heart ready to gather and connect.
