Michigan Amish Store

The household side of the store is baskets and rugs, both made by Amish hands. Baskets cover the usual range of uses, from carrying to storage to display, and the rugs are the woven sort meant for floors. These are the items to come for if you want something built to be used rather than a mass-produced version, and they suit a buyer furnishing a home or looking for a durable, handmade piece.

On the food shelves are jam, jelly, kettle corn, and popcorn. The jam and jelly are the spreadable preserves you would expect on a pantry shelf, sold by the jar. The popcorn comes in two forms: plain kernels for popping at home, and kettle corn, which is the sweet-and-salty popped version ready to eat. Between the two, you can stock up to make your own or pick up a finished snack on the way out.

Posted hours are 9 AM to 5 PM. Payment is cash or check; no card reader is noted, so plan to bring one of those if you intend to buy. Because the store mixes shelf-stable food with handmade household goods, it works either as a quick stop for a snack or jar of jelly or as a destination for the baskets and rugs. If you are driving in from outside the immediate area, it is worth confirming the store is open before you make the trip.
