Amish General Store Finds

If you're in Amish country you have to check out Lehman's for some unique items!

[@smokeydog67]

My grandpa had a 16 inch dinner bell that belonged to his granddad, when my grandpa passed away someone had the gall to steal it. One day I will have one and it will be passed down through the generations. Thank you for showing this it brought back so many memories.

[@Kaiquintos]

I'm genuinely feeling offended on your behalf! That bell is probably something most folks wouldn't bat an eye at but it's literally a part of your history! I hope you'll eventually get yourself a good bell from which you can call many meals with your near and dear!

[@Shitbird3249]

It’s not right that it was taken, hell no it’s not, but having a new one and bolting it down/welding it and giving it a good ring will be what sounds off loud enough for a few generations back to hear. Best of luck with your bell and sound one off for this random KZbin comment !

[@johnvrabec9747]

Its a Danish dough whisk, they are so great mixing cookie and other batters.

[@kirsikka1029]

You can buy made in USA cast iron waffle makers from Applachian Cast Iron. They're coming out with a second type later this year to make Belgian style waffles. Located in Johnson City TN.

[@janethompson2305]

❤Thank U, dear. I respect U protecting Appalachian Cast Iron as tho it's your life. It seems like they sure mean everything to U & for that, I will look them up 😊 God bless 🙌🙏 you so much

[@moose7012]

I was gonna say... they are almost all made in the USA

[@jean1228]

That’s cool but $225 ($115 for seconds) is outside my budget for a stovetop waffle iron.

[@Rockhunter329]

@@jean1228 You might find an old unrestored one for cheaper at a flea market or an antique shop. I found a mildly rusty Griswold among a bunch of odds and ends at an antique mall for fairly cheap. Lucky find. But "artisan" cast iron costs $$$ to $$$$ these days.

[@Volundur9567]

​@@jean1228Check out Lodge. Made in USA too, at least mine were. They might have a waffle too.

[@jackieyoung3359]

Everytime I go to Lehman’s I wish I won the lottery because I literally want to buy everything. Such a cool store filled with stuff you just can’t find anywhere else. The kitchen section is the best!

[@renniehorneman1429]

The dough whisk is the greatest for mixing dense doughs and batters. Easy to clean too. I love mine so much I bought a bunch more to give to my cooking friends

[@phlydude]

I use mine for mixing up my bread doughs when I add poolish. Easy to clean and mixes everything so quickly. No need for a stand mixer!

[@Tropicalpisces]

Country stores, will never fall short on me. They're my ultimate fave!!!! 🎉🎉❤❤❤

We live really close to Amish country. ( 20 min) Just got to go to an auction. It was the most fun!! Can't wait for the next one.

They used to have a catalog, and my dad always got them. He ordered some things from it, and always wanted to go to the store if he ever got the chance. They have an amazing collection of items

[@philshoup1582]

It's a fantastic store. If your ever in the area you need to visit. Been visiting since 1960s. Mom used to buy plenty of supplies there.

[@pamela5250]

Ooohh. A noodle roller. I have my great-Aunt’s. That’s one of my kitchen heirlooms. I’ve never seen another one anywhere.

[@bunnyslippers191]

I'm rather proud of myself because I knew what it was immediately, even though I've never seen one before or even heard of one. My extended family rolls up the dough, then slices the noodles by hand. That roller would cut the time and effort of making the noodles by about half. I want one!

[@kateg7298]

That looks like a great bell to bring in the cowboys, Kent.

[@rogernelson250]

I would love to see more of Amish shopping. Thanks

[@Wagster2003]

We were just there October of 2023. Was up there from Texas for a family wedding. Heard about this hardware store, so we made time to check it out. I’m glad we flew on this trip. Had we driven, I would have put a hurt’n on my pocket book. They had some really unique stuff.

[@ceedoman7190]

So sorry we missed seeing you there. That’s a great place. I sure sure hope you come back again.

[@shellspring1]

Awesome baskets... they last a long time.

[@endelosecosplay1302]

The whisk is originally attributed to the danish. My father-in-law is from Denmark and we have one in our kitchen too now. Works great and sooo easy to clean. Works amazing with pancake mix for making pancakes on onYes cast iron skillet.

[@CWengrovius1420]

Great video & thanks for sharing. I’ve been to that store in Amish country a few times with my family & love finding cool things for your house or kitchen. Amish country is my happy place & such a slower pace of life there as well.

I grew up 5 miles down the road from an Amish store. Mom would always go there to get baking supplies, and everything we bought from them worked great. There's an Amish saw mill further down the road from there; and they were great to work with. They wouldn't haggle much, but you could usually find great prices on hardwoods.

[@richardhoward526]

Lehman’s is great. It is in the middle of nowhere but a terrific country drive. We live in Michigan and it’s worth it just leave plenty of time to explore. Ohio has a large Amish community in Holmes County and worth the drive. Lots to see and do for families

[@donarthiazi2443]

Hmmm, it'd be a good road trip... unless it's on *THE GAME* day and you show up with those Michigan plates 🤔

[@vizzo93]

I live in Holmes County.. love it here.

[@GangstarComputerGod]

There’s one across from IKEA. They aren’t in just rural places.

[@OneEyedJack01]

Why are you driving all the way to Ohio? There is a large Amish community in La Grange county, Indiana, right on the MI/IN border.

[@PS-rr2jt]

That place is awesome!

[@TikiRainbows]

I always wanted an Amish quilt, or one made from Indian natives (sorry if that's the wrong term, but when I grew up in my time we call them Indians) to sleep in bed with a handmade bedsheet you know was crafted with love, helps you sleep in comfort

[@donarthiazi2443]

No need to apologize, just be yourself my friend. And you're right by the way about sleeping with an Amish quilt. Warm and very comfortable

[@janethompson2305]

And they R even more warm knowing that many women would sit around the quilt & all quilt together ❤️😊

[@harrisonmantooth7363]

TikiRainbows ; My precious Mother used to make Quilts often. She had boxes of "square blocks" ready to piece together. After Mother passed away, all of ladies in my family were given the chance to pick which Blocks they wanted. Every family had a Quilt partially made by Mom.

When I was diagnosed with stage 4 cancer that the first oncologist deemed terminal, I set out to crochet each of my loved ones a blanket, something to remember me by. Well, that was 7 years ago this November and I'm still here and still crocheting. I've made more blankets than I can count. 😂

Everything you do older brother, is an absolute blessing. I've never even met you, and I absolutely love you. I need a trip to Ohio now. Lol.

[@HaddaClu]

One of the best things about Lehman's is that they have spare parts for kitchen appliances that are no longer in production. I had to go there for some gaskets and a replacement funnel for a specific food mill from the 60s for my mom, and they had what we needed.

[@jamesharrison6201]

When I hear Amish country, I remember my sojourns to Lancaster, Bird In Hand, Intercourse PA area. York too

God bless you Mr Rollins God bless you from Texas

[@maxinemcelroy8902]

I'm a 71 year old widow originally from Akron, Ohio. Back in 1998, my brother was diagnosed with cancer. He lived in Enterprise, Alabama. He managed to drive to my house in Roanoke, VA. We then proceeded to go to Akron, our only other sibling, our oldest sister, still lived there. We stayed at her house and she took us to the Amish country. We had one of best days of our lives. We actually got along 😮 We went shopping and right at the same store you're filming from, my brother bought me a marble rolling pen. I still use it to this day. We then went to a large restaurant that sat up high on a hill. The food was the best in all the land 😋 We continued to shop at just about every store. There were another one that had a deli with every kind of cheese you could imagine, and the smells of the cheese and meats were amazing! They also had a huge ice cream area. Our sister told us to wait, when she returned she had an ice cream cone for both of us, chocolate, of course 😋 However, it was the largest ice cream cone I'd ever seen in my life 😮 It had to be close to a half a gallon. She tells us that those are the mediums. It took everything we had to eat them all. Ohhhh my goodness, I've never tasted ice cream, so wonderful since! So, yes indeed, going to the Amish country in Ohio is well worth the trip. Definitely check out their fabric shops, top notch fabrics!! Both my brother and sister have gone home to Jesus but I hope to get back to the Amish country soon with my niece. Y'all stay safe, healthy, and blessed 👑🙏💞✝️🐾🕯🕯🕯🕯🕯🕯🕯
