Nappanee Grocery, Tour of Amish Acres and a Play in the Big Red Round Barn.

We started the day with grocery shopping at a local chain called Martin’s. As you can see the Amish have special parking at most of the businesses in town.

After lunch we went to Amish Acres to tour the grounds and tour a 1890’s Amish house.

The corn is tall around here.

Most new Amish homes do not very much from this home.

First out building is the drying house.
