Are you always on the lookout for unique, family-friendly destinations that are just a short drive away? Well, I’ve got a fantastic recommendation for you. Nestled in the charming village of Kidron, Ohio, just about 45 minutes south of us, is a place that’s been a well-kept secret among locals for years – Lehman’s.
Lehman’s isn’t just any store. It’s an iconic old-time general store that’s been serving the local Amish community since 1955 with practical, non-electric tools and appliances. It’s like stepping back in time, and it’s been voted the Best Destination in Ohio’s Amish Country for five years in a row!
Imagine spending a day at Lehman’s, marveling at the non-electric appliances, shopping in the year-round Christmas store, and even enjoying some delicious snacks in Lehman’s café. The kids would especially love the nostalgic toy room and the Amish Artist Paul Weaver’s carvings in the Buggy Barn.
But what’s really exciting is that Lehman’s has a lineup of family-friendly events planned for this summer and fall. From back-to-school games to a classic car show, and even a fall festival, there’s something for everyone.
And while you’re there, don’t forget to check out the newly remodeled housewares department. With new fixtures, floors, and products, this area has everything you need for baking, cooking, food preservation, and an impressive assortment of cast iron cookware!
Lehman’s is open every day except Sunday, and you can always check them out at Lehmans.com. For more details on all the events they’re hosting, visit Lehmans.com/events.
So, moms, if you’re looking for a fun, educational, and unique day trip for your family, I can’t recommend Lehman’s enough. It’s not just a shopping trip, it’s an adventure! And the best part? It’s just a short 45-minute drive away.
