16 Stores Found
Kentucky is home to roughly 12,000 Amish residents spread across more than 40 settlements, making it one of the more significant Amish states in the South-Central region. Most of these communities were established after the 1970s, giving Kentucky a relatively younger Amish presence compared to Ohio or Pennsylvania, though several settlements have grown into well-established, self-sustaining communities. The state's rural hill country and fertile farmland in the central and western regions have attracted Amish families seeking affordable land.
The Liberty community in Casey County is among the largest and most well-known in Kentucky, drawing visitors looking for furniture, bulk foods, and handcrafted goods along the rural routes surrounding the town. Scottsville in Allen County anchors a productive community in south-central Kentucky, while Marion, Somerset, and Munfordville each host smaller but active settlements.
Communities & Character
The Casey County community centered on Liberty is the most visitor-friendly cluster in Kentucky, with roadside stands, bulk food stores, and small furniture shops distributed along rural routes. The Allen County settlement near Scottsville is known for its furniture makers and quilt shops, drawing buyers from Tennessee and neighboring states who seek custom woodwork at reasonable prices.
Smaller settlements in Munfordville (Hart County) and Somerset (Pulaski County) offer a more off-the-beaten-path experience. Marion in Crittenden County represents one of the westernmost Kentucky communities and is notable for its broom-making tradition.
What Kentucky is Known For
- Hardwood furniture (bedroom sets, rocking chairs, tables)
- Hand-stitched quilts and wall hangings
- Bulk baking supplies, grains, and dried goods
- Brooms and woven baskets (especially in Marion area)
- Jams, jellies, apple butter, and canned preserves
- Fresh-baked bread, pies, and pastries
- Leather goods and harness work
- Honey and beeswax products
Best Time to Visit
Late spring through early fall (May through October) is the best time to visit Kentucky Amish communities. Gardens and roadside stands are fully stocked, baked goods and produce are plentiful, and the rural roads are accessible without winter weather complications. Avoid visiting on Sundays, as all Amish businesses are closed. The fall harvest season in September and October brings especially good availability of canned goods, apple products, and late-season produce.
Travel Tips
- Call ahead when possible — many small Kentucky Amish shops have no signage and operate only on certain days; local county visitor bureaus often maintain current lists.
- Bring cash, as most Amish businesses do not accept credit cards and some operate on an honor-system payment basis.
- Drive slowly on rural routes — horse-drawn buggies share the road and can appear around blind curves, especially in the Liberty and Scottsville areas.
- Respect posted signs about photography; Kentucky Amish communities generally discourage photos of individuals.
Cultural & Etiquette Notes
Kentucky Amish communities are predominantly Old Order, maintaining a conservative lifestyle that includes horse-and-buggy transportation, plain dress, and rejection of public utility connections. Unlike more tourist-oriented communities in Ohio, many Kentucky settlements have limited infrastructure for visitors. Visitors are welcomed as customers and neighbors rather than as tourists, so approaching interactions with genuine interest and respect for privacy goes a long way.

Frequently asked questions
Where are Amish stores in Kentucky?
Amish stores in Kentucky are concentrated in several rural counties. The largest cluster is in Casey County near Liberty, where you'll find bulk food stores, furniture shops, and roadside produce stands. Allen County near Scottsville has furniture makers and quilt shops. Other communities with Amish businesses include Somerset (Pulaski County), Marion (Crittenden County), and Munfordville (Hart County).
What is the Amish community in Liberty Kentucky?
The Liberty Amish community in Casey County is one of the largest Old Order Amish settlements in Kentucky, established in the 1980s and grown steadily since. The community spans rural routes around Liberty and includes dozens of family-run businesses selling furniture, bulk foods, baked goods, quilts, and farm produce. Businesses are scattered along county roads — there is no single Amish marketplace.
Are there Amish stores in eastern Kentucky?
Eastern Kentucky has a limited Amish presence compared to the central and western parts of the state. The mountainous terrain of the Appalachian region is less suitable for the large-scale farming and road travel that Amish communities rely on. Visitors looking for a full selection of Amish goods and multiple shops in one area are better served by traveling to the Liberty (Casey County) or Scottsville (Allen County) communities.
What can I buy at Kentucky Amish stores?
Kentucky Amish stores typically carry hardwood furniture, hand-stitched quilts, bulk baking supplies (flour, oats, spices, dried beans), jams and preserves, fresh-baked bread and pies, honey, beeswax candles, leather goods, and seasonal produce. Some areas, especially Marion, are known for handmade brooms and woven baskets.
