(A pleased parent) This place was the best part of my vacation (A young workshop guest) On your next family vacation, make plans to visit the actual Make-a-Friend Workshops in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania. Right in the center of Amish country! Step inside our fun workshop and your cultural adventure begins. Choose between building a wooden barn, train, airplane, tractor and wagon or an Amish friend. Make-A-Friend To begin making a friend be sure to get your workshop pass and then make your way around to the six different Creation Stations throughout the workshop. Not only will you create a friend from Amish country with authentic handmade clothing, but you will also learn about your friend's culture at two special activity stations. Learn about life inside a one room school house while you practice German calligraphy and try your skill at knotting a quilt at our quilt frame. Finish up by signing and sealing your friendship certificate and ringing the hanging cast iron school bell to celebrate that a friend has been made. Only $20.00!! *Please note, the German calligraphy station and quilt station are not available at Make-A-Friend Workshop Express at Kitchen Kettle. Barnyard Builders Feel like a carpenter? Well grab your hammer and workman's goggles and head over to the workshop bench. Choose your creation - a wooden Lancaster County barn, steam train, or tractor and wagon. We'll supply everything you'll need to build your special creation. All of our wooden pieces have been handcrafted by a local Amish craftsman so your final project will truly be a treasure that lasts for years to come.
