Shopping

This is a wonderful place to shop! Included is Country Gatherings, Village Gift Barn, The Gardens, and Buggy Brew Coffee Co. I love all the plants in The Gardens and I like the lemon scones served at the Buggy Brew Coffee shop.

This place has a variety of stores to shop at. Our favorite is the Berlin Pet Shoppe where you can hold the puppies. We are frequent visitors! Shop the Berlin Craft Mall, Berlin Antique Mall, Tis the Season Christmas Shoppe, Berlin Leather and more. Eat a meal at the Old World Bistro while you're here.

This is a very popular place tourists like to visit. It reminds me of an old time mercantile or maybe what a mall would have been like in the 1850s. You will find unique items that will help you live a simpler life.

I love this place for great prices on fabric, sewing, or any craft project I have in mind. You never know what you'll find and it's fun to see what's new.

City/town information

I grew up near the small town of Berlin. You can spend a whole day walking up and down the sidewalks shopping in all types of stores.

Restaurants

This is our favorite local restaurant. We especially love the breakfast. They open for breakfast at 5:30 in the morning! Hint: go early during the summer and on weekends! We also love the cream pies served here. This is a small restaurant so I wouldn't advise going in with a large group.

Fun activities

Along with a great bakery, this place has an adorable petting farm in the summer time. Our children love coming here and the price is very reasonable. Another highlight is ordering lunch at the outdoor food stand and eating at the picnic tables.

A great drive through animal park featuring over 500 animals. They are closed November-March. Depending what time of the year you come you may see plowing, thrashing, canning, and quilting.

Local Produce Market

A great place to visit in the summer and fall...this place is run by an Amish widow woman. She raises all her produce right there on the farm. In the fall she has lots of pumpkins. I love cutting my own bouquet of flowers. Everything is paid by using the honor system. You leave your money in a bucket and get change as needed.

A family-owned orchard located in Walnut Creek, Ohio. They specialize in home-grown apples and fresh unpasturized cider, but they also grow peaches and sell locally grown produce in the retail store (Open Mid July - end of Mar.) They have a great porch look-out with a beautiful view of the orchard. Our favorite are the cider slushies. You have to visit this place in the fall. It's an amazing place but super busy, so be sure to go early in the morning, especially on the weekends.

An excellent road side stand to buy fresh peaches from and it is super close to the barn. I buy all our families peaches here in the summertime. Ask them how to store your peaches until you are ready to use them. They know what they are doing! (I may be biased as the owners are related to my husband!)
