The Amish Community

The Amish Community

Lafayette County is home to a small population of Amish families that you may see with their signature black, horse-drawn buggy traversing across the county. This community is known for their home grown produce, gorgeous flowers, fresh baked goods and carpentry skills. Throughout the county, you may notice several signs at the end of driveways indicating "fresh eggs", "greenhouse now open" and "fresh baked goods daily". Since the Amish community do not have electricity or use phones, this is their way of advertising and inviting the public to their homesteads to purchase their products. Because of the growing interest in the Amish community, we have reached out to them so we could help educate the public on their way of life.
