For those of you interested in homesteading and preparedness, you probably know what Lehmans is. For those of you who don't know, Lehmans is a non-electric hardware located in Ohio Amish country.
And we are going there!
This will be our second time there, but it has been years since our first visit. The plan is to get some oil lamp parts, soap making supplies(I can't find lye around here), laundry drying racks and possibly a few other small items. And of course we will look at the woodstove displays!
While in the area we will also be spending some time in the Amish bulk food stores stocking up on winter neccesities. Once again, we don't have any stores around here similar to what they have there.
Then maybe something that will interest our daughter, like some animals.
So we will be gone for a few days to relax and enjoy doing nothing. Then it will be time to come home and start putting up the sweet corn and tomatoes!!

Have fun!!! We both love Lehmans and go there at least 4 times a year. (we're less than an hour away) If it's been years since your last visit, be prepared, lol. They expanded the store, so its HUGE!
Don't forget to check out the flea market next door if you're going on Saturday, good deals to be found. Schisslers Cheese House is a must too, lol. North of Lehmans on Kidron rd just before you hit rt. 30. I *highly* recommend their horseradish cheese and smoked baby swiss, mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm.
The best place I have found in that area for bulk is in Berlin. I can't remember the name for the life of me, but it's just a block off of rt39 right in Berlin. I believe there is another in Charm. The stores along the main routes have little in actual "bulk" since that area has become such a tourist attraction. We've searched the area for 2 years for bulk coffee and there isn't any, so don't bother to look if you intended to.
Now I wanna go too, lol, enjoy!
