    Guess the Plain Community

    Published: Mar 29, 2016 · Updated: Mar 29, 2016 by Kevin Williams | 5 Comments

    By Kevin Williams

    My parents recently decided to get in their car and explore the country as they are wont to do the spring.  Of course if I can ever steer them towards a Plain community of any sort, I'm happy to do so!  When I learned they'd be heading near one of my favorite Plain settlements I jumped at the chance to give them some pointers as where to visit.

    So, can anyone guess where this photo was taken?  First person to get it right gets bragging rights.  I'm thinking that you'd have to be familiar with this exact spot but if you are you'll probably recognize it immediately.

    Okay, any guesses? (and, I know, you can Google "Hometown Realty Group", but there are a gazillion businesses with that name, I don't think it helps much!)

      I posted on FB. Yep ... know the spot well. We live nearby and my husband and his family grew up Old Order. Our daughters' three sitters are Old Orders. This would be Dayton, VA - Dayton Farmers' Market. They recently had a rebrand campaign but it will always be the Farmers' Market.

    Kevin Williams - The Amish Editor Amish Cook Column

    Hi There, I'm Kevin!

    Welcome to Amish365, where I share my knowledge of Amish cooking and culture! I’ve spent almost three decades exploring Amish settlements and kitchens from Maine to Montana and almost everywhere in between. I’ll occasionally throw in stories of my travels, journalism adventures (I’m a Pulitzer prize-nominated journalist), fascination with grocery stores and Kmarts, and much more!
