Many of the shop owners are local - a huge variety of products are sold here from well known brand name products to locally handcrafted items. Local hand made quilts and other hand crafted fabric items, soft pretzels, Amish made lawn furniture and kitchen cabinets, locally designed ladies clothing, and a few locally made craft items mixed in with other good quality crafts. The building itself is a pleasure to see. Finish your visit with a pie on the 3rd floor baked by a local Amish lady.

Yoder's Shopping Center

Reviewed By MangoLove - Cebu City, Philippines

This is a small mall with a number of stores in it, the largest of which is Yoder's Department Store. There is also a large hardware store in it. The selection is great, and we come here to find hard to find items. The staff is always kind and pleasant. Yoder's is our go-to shoe store. The department store also has clothes for the entire family, and things for the house. The hardware store pretty has much has everything else. Be prepared for the Amish and their buggies. There are also rocking chairs to sit on in the hallway outside the stores (down the middle of the building) so you can pass time there while your loved one shops. The parking lot is large and is handicapped friendly (so are the stores). The whole building is clean. Definitely worth a visit if you are in Shipshewana.

The flea market is in Amish country, and yes did expect a lot of Amish Handcrafts. The. Ark etc was a combination of eclectic finds. There was beautiful lace doilies and place,arts, to fabric, craft finds, outdoor collections. There is over 700 stalls. Yes there is the common Asian stalls, but the rest are wonderful. Handmade signs, home decor, garden metal figurines. They are very welcoming people, if you have something specific you are looking for just ask, they are very willing to help you. Tuesday and Wednesday 8-4 opening hours. You can reserve scooters and wagons, but get in early because they run out.
