    More Knox County Beauty

    Published: Sep 17, 2014 · Updated: Sep 17, 2014 by Kevin Williams | Leave a Comment

    Last week I visited the rolling hills of Knox County, Ohio and just fell in love with the scenery and peacefulness of the place. I'm sure I will be going back. Plus members will be treated to a fascinating series of stories and recipes about the unique food collaborative between Kenyon College and Amish growers.  Knox County is a hodge-podge of different Amish orders.   knox.082 (1)This buggy belongs to an Andy Weaver Amish church member.  The Andy Weaver church was formed in 1952 from a church split.  The Andy Weaver Amish are more conservative than mainline Old Order Amish, but they aren't Swartzentruber conservative. For instance, notice the orange safety triangle displayed on the back of this buggy.  This time of year produce is plump and plentiful and farm-stands are getting rid of the last of their garden goodies.  Some forecasts call for a first frost in this part of Ohio within the next 10 days.  Brrrr...but these veggies warm one to look at!  These come from my new friends at Nisley's Organic Produce.  knox.092Hot peppers really are a mainstay in most Amish gardens these days.

    Here are some more veggies scenes from Nisley's.  Next week, we'll go for a tour inside their home and get some great recipes also!knox.095 knox.105

    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!
