I last visited this Amish market 50 years ago, when I was a grad student at Penn State. My! How it has grown! It was just the baked goods, etc., barn and the livestock auction barn ... way back when. I plan to visit in 2025.
My wife and I live in Cumberland County and visit the Market about once a month. It's a beautiful rural setting there in Big Valley. Our only complaint is the condition of the market's parking lot. Some of the ruts / washouts are deep and wide. Given the number of visitors that attend the market, we think parking lot maintenance should be a big priority, especially considering the safety of others. In my opinion a front end loader or land plane of some kind would be an economical solution. We always look forward to the trip there and the people are down to earth as well.
In my childhood I lived next door to the "Sale Barn". I was seldom permitted to walk over there on sale day. We love to visit the Valley from KS in the warmer months and spend time walking through Belleville- reminiscing. We recognize the slower pace of life which reflects in the changeless society. As I watched this video- I marvel at the overall condition of the buildings. I recognize the "culture" of the Valley is that" it's fine" and doesn't need any paint or upkeep. The reality is - it will collapse around them IF no one takes any PRIDE in the maintenance of the buildings.Thanks for helping us recall the days of our childhood in your video production.

Swiss German Heaven! My Peeps! Great video!!
I like seeing the Nebraska Amish in your videos. Hope to see more on them.
Wow that`s some low hazy weather there, Lovely mix of goods, quilts I love those, & yummy looking food.
It was that morning. A mix of wildfire smoke and morning fog. Thanks for watching another video. Greatly appreciated.
Happy Sunday!
Favorite place on Wednesdays. Great deals and food.

Thanks for watching. The “parking lot” is a bit rough that’s for sure. It is a nice country market none the less. Down to earth and homey.
Good morning have a blessed day and may God bless you and keep you safe

i had my first woppie pie there in the 1960s

Thanks for watching and commenting. The buildings are showing their age that’s for sure.
They must sell hundreds of those pretzels. What do they charge for them?

If you keep showing these videos, its gonna start bringing riff-raff and no good into this fine community.
