Every year in the Spring and in the Fall, the Amish have a huge fundraiser for their schools all over the area. We were able to participate for a few hours Saturday morning and really enjoyed ourselves. They have numerous booths, pounds of homemade baked goods, homemake ice cream, burger, fries, and auctions. These are just a few pictures of the numerous tents set up for the various fund raising activities.
It is common to see a John Deere tractor anywhere. |
Auction items set up on tables. Different auction begin at different times, including the livestock and handmade quilts. |
Pies are on the left and other baked goods on the tables. |

Amish men heating up the fryers. If the men are married, they have beards. If not married, they are clean shaven. |
Auctioning off household goods. We purchased a couple of crocks and a "cafe" sign for our kitchen at home. |
They make ice cream by hooking up the ice cream freezers to pulleys and running them off the motor of the tractor. Quick ice cream without much effort! |
