AMISH APPLE BUTTER: I don't know much about this place, so order at your own discretion but I do know that homemade apple butter made with an authentic Amish recipe is amazing. Good, good stuff, so here is a place you can order a couple of jars!
AMISH PEANUT BUTTER SPREAD: Now this looks amazing also. Amish peanut butter church spread is a very, very easy concoction to make and it is available commercially. For the life of me I don't know why it always tastes better when someone else makes it, but it does....Again, this is so easy to make yourself, but if you want to treat yourself, try this.
A simple wooden airplane....
WOODEN TOYS: I love this wooden airplane made by Lapp's Toys in Lancaster, PA. I appreciate a toy like this a lot more now that I have kids of my own. Geez, there are so many toys today that have a million pieces and parts to them and then they get lost or scattered around the house. Just a good, old-fashioned wooden toy can capture the imagination just as well as something more flashy. Click here to see this plane.
A Mennonite-made rhubarb pie can be shipped to your door...
HOMEMADE RHUBARB PIE: I can vouch for the authenticity of this, this is a homemade rhubarb pie from a Mennonite-owned bakery in New York. You know, this is not a bad price: $20 for a homemade pie steeped in Mennonite culinary traditions. For someone who lives far from Amish and Mennonite country, this is a real opportunity to have a Plain culture experience delivered to your door. To find out more, click here.
HOMEMADE PEAR-MINCEMEAT PIE: Ugh, I think this sounds horrible, to be honest, but it's such a quirky, offbeat flavor that you never see and mincemeat enjoys such a rich tradition among the Mennonites...this is another pie from the same Mennonite-owned bakery in New York. See the pie and find out more here.

Wow! The first couple of reviews I read for the pie??!!! Aren't the bakers supposed to make the pie before we get'em? May I say this is another reason I don't deal with Etsy retailers! The ones I have, have me all kinds of "attitude," you'd never guess they were Amish or Mennonite! Really bad attitudes!

Hi, Steve - I think I'll order one of these pies myself in the next few days, I'll let you know how my experience is! - Kevin
