Shopping Outside The System: Amish Stores.

[@ClaudiaMitchell-jn7fw]

I bought some wonderful honey from the Amish in Rose City, Michigan, across from the grocery store. 🙂❤️.!

[@gidget8717]

Always, always, always support your local people if you can. They care about your community and the people of that community. Conglomerate owned big box stores only care about the bottom line. Good video 👍

[@glen1arthur]

hear hear! - well said

[@michelleotts6236]

You guys are my people, you like your sweets! Awesome watch

We had a wonderful time shopping in Shipshewana, IN. Lots of Amish made furniture and delicious Amish fried pies, cheeses, beef sausage sticks, pies, and the Yoder’s soft pretzels were like fluffy, melt in your mouth clouds. Here’s our road trip from last week. kzbin.info/www/bejne/hmq9lIigmp6Wh9Esi=fwQEia-Qz9e_q-FI

Nice selection of chain saw bars , my Husqvarna dealer has very little , and is always waiting on a shipment , the Husqvarna dealer in my town , Iron Mountain , Husqvarna pulled their entire line , mom & pop hardware store , and Milwaukee tools pulled their entire line , People were Bummed ! Both sides of the isles packed with every Milwaukee tool made, they had spectacular sales numbers ! Putting the little guy out of business on purpose ! Tractor supply sells baby Husqvarna chain saws , and Home Depot sells Milwaukee power tools , but not 1/4 of what the mom & pop store had ! They had everything , from tiny to massive ,

[@KathysTube]

Trolls 😂 Enjoyed the road trip 😎👍

[@dianaschoen4485]

I always visit a friend in Atlanta and usually stop in Rose City on the way. Ill have to stop at Mio and at The Creamery!😊

[@VsNorthwoodsHomestead]

Awesome! I'm so lucky to have moved to an Amish community and become friends with several Amish families. Our Amish store-owner friend is letting us sell herb seedlings in his store this year. We usually purchase chicks through him, he places a bulk order once he has enough. Well this year they told him he'd have to wait until June to get his order! He asked us if he could supply fertilized eggs to us to hatch out, so we're in a new endeavor with that! Before I end my fairly-long comment here, I just wanted to give you a garlic update! Based on your fall garlic video, we peeled our garlic, soaked them in vodka, then in water-soluble fertilizer before planting. We planted 320 cloves and probably more then 300 of them already popped up! They were about 3 inches tall before we got a foot of snow dumped on us overnight, here in Northern Wisconsin! I'm looking forward to harvesting the garlic and will be using your method from now on!

[@ModernRefugee]

Funny you mention my garlic. I just did a update video on mine. I will have it up in a day or so. Northern Wisconsin is beautiful, we love it there.

[@VsNorthwoodsHomestead]

Hahaha, I jumped the gun! I'm looking forward to seeing your garlic!

[@truthhurtz2793]

That was fun!! Thank you!

[@LandseerNorth]

These stores are amazing. There's one down by Farwell, MI also. Thanks as always MR!

[@vickenator]

I saved this one for a rainy day and it did not disappoint. Great selection and offerings at all the places you guys stopped. Thanks for taking us along.

[@ModernRefugee]

Your welcome!

[@PreppingWithSarge]

yes! I miss the one we had in our neighborhood in Kentucky. good people.

[@lmuledeer388]

My sister and I visit the Amish stores in our area whenever we can. We go to the bulk food store, the bakery, and the creamery where we can get butter for less than $3 a pound. It's always a fun day trip, and we always bring home more than planned for. 😊

[@cinnamongurl8102]

Good Morning MR.😊

[@ModernRefugee]

Hello to you! Hope you have a great day!

[@backachershomestead]

There's a couple of Amish stores in our location. Most of the farm you can buy from them directly. Mostly fresh produce when in season. They do process meat. They raise pork and beef and sell you the whole animal and then process it. We take our livestock to them. The Amish have to use steel wheels on everything. The Mennonite can use tires,phones etc. Have a great day everyone!

[@StabbinJoeScarborough]

Some of the best stuff I have from the Amish is Draw Salve , thanks MR !

[@PenntuckytheCrag]

Love having so many Amish around us. good video Modern Immer Besser

[@PenntuckytheCrag]

Die veren zijn erg mooi.

[@ModernRefugee]

@@PenntuckytheCrag a guten tag, wie bist du? Will get you a long way with the older Amish.

[@PenntuckytheCrag]

@@ModernRefugee yes good day and how are you?

[@sadie21962]

When shopping in an Amish community be sure to bring cash or your checkbook because most dont take credit cards. I love shopping at my local Amish bulk food store.

[@Minnehaha64]

We have a bulk food store a couple miles away from us, here in West central Ohio. It's run by German Baptists, nice, friendly people. I've filled some of my buckets pretty quickly by shopping there. They have been offering an ever-expanding farmer's market there from summer into the fall, which is amazing! It's a small store, but it's great for us, because we can get nearly anything we might need there in a pinch. Also, over in Indiana, probably about 40 miles from us, there is a huge Amish store (locals call it the "Amish Wal-Mart "!😂) Much bigger selection, and lots of fresh produce in summer. Thank you for naming some items to think about. It always helps to have another person's ideas. Blessings!

[@ModernRefugee]

Your welcome and have a good day!

[@prepperfortheages878]

Liked the scythes, but you had me at pineapple bars! Ok now I'm hungry again... Thank you for the tours. -Jill

[@vickenator]

I was really expecting him to buy the pineapple bars! Maybe next time.

[@Gusterdogsmom]

This is where I shop! We buy our feed from the feed mill and I love the general store!!!

[@ModernRefugee]

It’s a great community. We had excellent sandwiches at the Creamery and the maple mustard was really good.

[@northerngirlhobbies]

We love shopping from the Amish

[@bobc9744]

Great video MR. Love shopping at Amish stores. Have a few that shop in the hardware store I work at and have some good friend alliances with them. Take care buddy.

[@k8barkley]

Wonderful!! Great video!! Thanks for sharing this.

[@maccabeus-everydaysurvival5828]

I use the Amish too. And they are part of my alliances.

[@Diebulfrog79]

Great haul

[@ModernRefugee]

Thanks Al, have a great day!

[@glen1arthur]

now I am hungry and wanting to garden - can't want for May so we can plant.

[@TeutonicNordwind]

Great vid, MR! I hunted for about 15 years from the early 80's in the triangle formed by Mio, Lewiston and Luzerne and we always used to make first stop at a farm/homestead on (I think) "Cherry Creek Rd" and pick up delicious home baked goods for deer camp. In archery season, they had bales of straw for practice in camp for $3 a bale. Nice friendly people.

[@ModernRefugee]

It was a great community and day. We will be back.

[@tammybrennan2040]

Pumpkin rolls are so delicious 😋 love the Amish stores. Happy Monday.

[@ModernRefugee]

Have a good day!

[@sweetirene7230]

Thanks for sharing. I usually go to Clare but I'm also fortunate to have Amish that live just 1/4 mile from me, and they have just a small store where they sell all kinds of baked goods, furniture, and produce that they grow. We have a mud truck that's a wrecker called Sweet Irene that they just love.

[@ModernRefugee]

We like the Clare area In general. Very good Amish store there too.

[@marygallagher3428]

Great haul MR :-)

[@joelaichner3025]

Adam brings Eve an Egg , says cook this for me ! Eve says ? What is it ! Adam says ? I have no clue ! I found it on the ground next to a Bird ! Eve says ? What’s a Bird ? Adam says ? I have no clue ! But it goes BHA-CHAK , GOD LAUGHS ! Where did the Joke Start ? GOD !

[@justusupnorth8262]

Nice, I’ll have to check out the Mio community. There are a couple pretty decent Amish stores close to Ebels-our favorite meat store. We’ve made the trip to Clare more than once, since you did your video on that one.

[@ModernRefugee]

Most of the businesses are on M-33 or off on Kittle Rd.

[@joelaichner3025]

I’m Still Thinking !

[@MichaelR58]

Nice tour , good video , thanks for sharing , God bless brother !

[@JT-2012]

What a fun day trip you had.👍😀. You found some great items.😋 When you said All Cash, did you mean they only accepted cash? Blessings 💙

[@ModernRefugee]

Yes, all the businesses were cash, no cards of any kind were accepted. The sandwiches they made for us were great. Best sandwich I have ever had for $4.50. Take care.

[@AlwaysSurvive]

You have some really nice spots over there dam

[@resoluteoutdoors]

We have a small bulk food store near us. The prices are great!

[@ModernRefugee]

Great places.

[@subdawg1331]

I still purchase my half pig... and half beef from the Mennonites even though i now live three hours away... i also purchase assorted other products from their mills... it is worth the drive...

[@ModernRefugee]

Yes it is. We go especially to shop from the Amish & Mennonites.

[@curtiskurtzweil7912]

The amish sell at my store and everything they gave us to sell sold out already for some wedding.

[@jonwick4924]

Hellyea. Good info MR!

[@grdelawter4266]

The local Amish store is very small, food only, mostly 2nd’s and dented cans and at expiration. No fresh meats. The Amish community split in two as the store was almost complete. Half of the Amish sold everything and moved about 75 miles south into another state. Anyway, I’d love to see the stores you visited. I also miss Ace hardware stores. There is a Lowe’s 30 miles away beside a Walmart and a Kroger.

[@ModernRefugee]

Glad you like the store videos. I’m hoping to do another as summer moves along.

[@TravelingWithSpecialAbilities]

I love purchasing from the Armish. Better quality!

[@lisarosebud6404]

Fun field trip

[@whitestone4401]

I shop in these same Amish stores. Love the quality and prices and they are honest people. The drive alone is worth it, the Amish farms are beautiful. I stopped in Narskis back in October and the smell of cigarette smoke was awful. Had to throw out the breakfast sausage I bought because of that smell).

[@ModernRefugee]

I never had a problem at Narskis, but it was for sale the last time I was there. It may have changed hands since that video. I will be there soon to check it out again. Thanks for the heads up.

[@CorsairTrainers]

Maple mustard? Never seen that.

[@ModernRefugee]

We had sandwiches with it and I’m here to say it was very good. It wasn’t really sweet, but flavorful.

[@estherj5887]

Must be a recipe out there!

[@missyvulders4004]

Not Amish related but if you get a chance one day Check out the meat market in Falmouth mi. Literally have cows from across the street hanging for fresh beef.

[@ModernRefugee]

Will do! Thanks for the tip!

[@joelaichner3025]

Yooper !

[@HuplesCat]

Really fun video MF. Thanks

[@ModernRefugee]

Your welcome! You and Kitty have a good day!

[@joelaichner3025]

Funny !
