Tired of the drab colors of winter… dead grasses, bare trees, snow laden gray skies and dirty snow banks? Well it’s time to put a little color back in your life as you discover the beauty of Summer along the Amish Trail.

Our back country roads are a kaleidoscope of color and activity during the spring months:  Farm animals with their young grazing in fields of new green grass.
