Sunday Activities In Lancaster County

Sundays in Amish Country is a very unique experience. The Amish never work on Sundays as it is their worship day. All Amish businesses, farmers markets and roadside stands are closed on Sundays.

Amish Country Farm is open on Sundays. You can ride a buggy or feed a goat or tour an Amish schoolhouse. Located at: Open 7 days a week. 2395 Covered Bridge Drive, Lancaster, PA 17602

Countryside Bus Tour 

Countryside Bus tours on Sunday are a bit different than on other days, but you’ll see things that cannot be seen any other day of the week. Our tour guides are fantastic, they know the back roads inside and out. They know where church is being held and they will make sure your tour is memorable. Sure, you can drive the back roads yourself, but why would you want to? You drove all the way here, let us drive you and teach you what we know. Our guides can answer your questions, drive past landmarks you wouldn’t even know are there. We know where the Amish are on a Sunday. Make a reservation online before you come!  Bus tours depart at 11am, 1pm, and 3pm.

What You’ll See on a Sunday

The back roads on a Sunday are hopping with activity! You’ll see groups of Amish children playing volleyball and croquet. And you will most definitely get stuck behind courting buggies and those traveling to and from church. Sunday’s are known to be high buggy traffic days. The beautiful scenery of Lancaster County can’t be beat on a Sunday drive through the farmlands!

Peaceful

You know what is also missing on a Sunday? The crowds. It is peaceful and quiet, exactly what you want to experience when in Amish Country. Without the Saturday crowds, the Amish farm is a perfect little oasis for a visit. They have lots of animals on our 15-acre farm. Come feed the goats some treats; they will love you forever!

Soft Pretzels

A short trip to the north is another little town that is a good place to visit. Historically a Moravian community, Lititz is filled with shops and great places to eat. Check out the Sturgis pretzel shop. Go in and try your hand at pretzel twisting, it’s not as easy as you think!

Feeding Animals 

Without the Saturday crowds, our farm is a perfect little oasis for a visit. We have lots of animals on our 15-acre farm. Come feed the goats some treats; they will love you forever. Most families spend up to two hours at the Amish farm. 

Go Shopping 

The Amish farm museum shop is one of the only places to find genuine Amish made items on a Sunday. We partner with Amish crafters from all over Lancaster. Our selection of handmade souvenirs takes up the entire back room of our shop- you must come check it out. We are also close to the Tanger and Rockvale Outlets.

Get Your Grub On

Just because the Amish restaurants are closed on Sundays doesn’t mean you are forced to eat at a chain restaurant. We highly recommend getting a hearty meal at the Fireside Tavern. Leave room for dessert because the Strasburg Creamery isn’t too far away!

Take a Hike

Turkey Hill Overlook is a 3.7 miles trail that has two overlooks with views of the Susquehanna river. Halfway through trekkers will have to get their feet wet but will be rewarded with a picturesque waterfall.

Zip Through the Trees 

Refreshing Mountain zip line course is a great outdoor activity for a Sunday. They have a high ropes obstacle course, several different zip lines and a pool! They also ahve a varity of Escape Rooms and a Wildlife Exhibit.

Make Your Own Ice Cream 

Head over to the Turkey Hill Experience and create your very own flavor of ice cream. You can also sample iced teas and milk a mechanical cow. Their hands-on activities are great for all ages.

Ride on the Train 

The Strasburg Railroad is open on Sundays and it’s a great place for adults and children alike. Be sure to reserve your seats online before you go!

Your trip to Lancaster County is not complete without trying authentic PA Dutch foods. And don’t be selfish — be sure to take some home to your friends and family!

Keep in mind there is no such thing as “Amish food.” The Amish don’t have any dietary restrictions. However, traditional Amish foods from our area are typically categorized as “Amish” or “Pennsylvania Dutch.”

Here are tips to help you plan your next food adventure in Lancaster, Pennsylvania:

  • For a classic breakfast, try the shoo-fly pie, which is made with molasses and crumb topping. You can find this sweet treat at many Amish bakeries in the area.
  • For lunch, head to Miller’s Smorgasbord for a wide variety of dishes, including chicken pot pie, ham and bean soup, and homemade breads. The restaurant also has a gift shop where you can find unique souvenirs.

Here are a few of the most popular PA Dutch foods in Lancaster and the best places to find them.

Lancaster, Pennsylvania is a foodie’s paradise, especially if you’re looking for classic Amish cuisine. From hearty breakfasts to savory dinners, Lancaster has a lot to offer any food enthusiast. Here’s a guide to the best restaurants and dishes to try in Amish Country.

Whoopie Pies

Whoopie Pies.

If you’ve never had a whoopie pie, imagine a mini chocolate cake sandwich filled with whipped vanilla icing. While chocolate cake with vanilla filling is the most popular variety, whoopies pies are usually available in other flavors too, such as pumpkin and red velvet depending on the time of year. Whoopie pies get their name from Amish children opening their lunch boxes and hollering ‘whoopie’ upon seeing the delicious dessert. When you take your first bite of this sweet treat, be sure to say ‘whoopie’ with delight.

Make your own with our authentic recipe: Amish Whoopie Pies

Our recommendation: The Bird-in-Hand Bake Shop

Chicken Pot Pie

chicken pot pie


This savory soup is filled with homemade noodles, potatoes, and chicken. To know if you’re eating the real deal, your pot pie shouldn’t be covered by a pie crust. This dish could be considered one of the most controversial foods in Amish Country. The argument is whether potatoes should or shouldn’t be included in the recipe. What’s your opinion?

Our recommendation: Katie’s Kitchen

Soft Pretzels

A soft pretzel.


Indulge yourself in a warm, buttery, salty soft pretzel. This is not a Philadelphia style pretzel, which is more dense and dry. The PA Dutch style soft pretzel melts in your mouth and are made even better when dipped in sweet mustard. While most of us like our pretzels plain, our Amish friends say they NEVER eat soft pretzels without a cheese or mustard dipping sauce.

Our recommendation: Amish BBQ Barn on our farm.

Sticky Buns

sticky buns


Calories do not count while on vacation, we promise! This sweet breakfast food originated in Germany and was brought to our area by Pennsylvania Dutch (German) immigrants. The list of ingredients varies by baker and bakery, but traditionally are plain or topped with raisins, walnuts or pecans.

 Our recommendations: Mr. Sticky’s or Bird-in-Hand Bakery.

Chow Chow

amish chow chow


While Amish Country is known for sweet baked goods, they also have sweet and sour vegetables. Traditionally, at the end of the summer, Amish families would collect all the leftover vegetables, and can them with salt, vinegar, sugar, and water.

Our recommendation: Purchase a jar from our on-site gift shop.

Chicken Corn Soup

There is nothing better than a cup of chicken corn soup to warm you up on a cold day. Here in Amish Country, you might find this soup with or without rivels. Rivels are teeny tiny dumplings that are made from homemade dough.

A Peek Inside Amish Easter Celebrations: Family, Reflection, and Joy

A Peek Inside Amish Easter Celebrations: Family, Reflection, and Joy

How Do The Amish Celebrate Easter?

The Amish, a religious group known for their simple lifestyle and strong faith, celebrate Easter with a mixture of solemnity and joy. While customs and traditions may vary slightly depending on the community, Easter is a time for reflection, fasting, and celebration.

Easter is an important religious holiday for the Amish, a community known for their adherence to traditional ways of life and religious practices. The Amish celebrate Easter in a simple yet meaningful way, focusing on the spiritual significance of the holiday.

The Easter season for the Amish begins on Good Friday, the day of Jesus’ crucifixion. On this day, the community observes a fast until noon, reflecting on the solemnity of the occasion. The Amish believe in fasting for sober holidays because it reflects the sacred day. After the fast is over, family and friends visit each other, and the days are typically capped off with a big meal, though it is not as elaborate as Christmas or Thanksgiving.

On Easter Sunday, the Amish attend church services to celebrate the resurrection of Jesus.

In some communities, children in the community color and hide eggs, and the eggs are eaten at the Easter table as they symbolize rebirth. Some Amish communities also exchange small gifts, like handmade crafts or baked goods, to mark the occasion.

Aside from these traditional observances, the Amish also use the Easter season as a time for reflection and renewal. They take the opportunity to meditate on the teachings of Jesus and to reaffirm their commitment to living a simple, humble life of faith.

Overall, the Amish approach Easter with a quiet reverence, emphasizing the spiritual significance of the holiday over the more commercial aspects often associated with it in modern society.

In the Holmes County, Ohio community, the Easter season begins on Good Friday, the day that Christ was crucified, with a morning fast. From Saturday until Monday, family and friends visit each other and socialize, usually ending the day with a meal. Children color and hide eggs, which are eaten at the Easter table, symbolizing rebirth.

In southern Michigan, Amish families observe Good Friday as a holiday, with no work or school. The churches in the community have a fast and prayer until noon. On Easter Sunday, families attend church to rejoice and be thankful for the gift of life that Jesus gave. Younger children still enjoy coloring eggs, a tradition passed down from previous generations.

Mary Ann Kinsinger, who was raised in a Somerset County, Pennsylvania community, describes how the Good Friday fast creates a sober and solemn atmosphere. The family reads the Bible and prays in hushed tones. Easter Sunday is treated like any other Sunday, with the addition of soft-boiled eggs for breakfast. Easter Monday is a non-work day in Mary Ann’s community.

While the Amish observe Easter in slightly different ways, the focus remains on the meaning of the holiday – the resurrection of Christ and the gift of new life. As they gather with family and friends, they reflect on the importance of their faith and the hope that Easter brings.

For the Amish, Easter is not just a one-day event but rather a season of observance. It is a time to reflect on their faith and the sacrifices that Christ made for them. It is also a time to spend with loved ones and to appreciate the new beginnings that come with springtime.

The Amish have a deep respect for the meaning behind the Easter holiday and believe that it should be observed in a way that honors the sacrifice of Christ. This is why they observe a fast on Good Friday and abstain from some of their regular activities.

Despite the solemnity of the occasion, Easter is also a time of joy and celebration for the Amish. Families gather together for meals and children participate in the fun tradition of coloring and hiding Easter eggs. The brightly colored eggs represent new life and hope, reminding the Amish of the promise of resurrection and the new beginnings that come with it.

In a world that seems to be constantly changing and evolving, the Amish take comfort in their steadfast beliefs and the traditions that have been passed down for generations. For them, Easter is a time to reflect on their faith, to appreciate the new life that comes with spring, and to spend time with their loved ones.
