I explain 2 ways to arrange a meal in an Amish home. What's the typical menu like, how much does it cost, and what should you expect? Do the Amish host families interact with you?
I also share a number of experiences from people who've eaten homemade dinners in different Amish communities. As you'll see, results can vary.
My name is Erik Wesner and I'm not Amish. Back in 2004, I met the Amish while selling books. Since then, I've visited 5,000+ Amish homes & dozens of Amish communities. My book on Amish business, Success Made Simple: An Inside Look at Why Amish Businesses Thrive, was published in 2010. I run the Amish America website: amishamerica.com/

Amish home meals listings - Note: I don't endorse these companies or receive any compensation for sharing these. This is a listing of some companies and individual Amish families I've come across that offer in-home meals.
As mentioned in the video some "word-of-mouth" businesses may be unlicensed so use your best judgment. In years past some Amish meal businesses were shut down over health concerns, though I've eaten many many meals in Amish homes without any issues. See www.baltimoresun.com/news/bs-... for more on past controversy over unlicensed Amish home meal businesses.
