Things To Do
SHOPPING:
Harrison Street and Morton Street in Shipshewana are where it’s at! Tons of little shops offering gifts, antiques, fun decor, clothing, etc. at Davis Mercantile, Cherry Pickers, and Ole Tin Rooster. You can grab lunch or dinner and take a carriage ride at the Blue Gate, which also has a theater if you want to catch a show. Davis Mercantile is filled with unique shops, Jojo’s Pretzels, and a carousel & fun book/toy store for the kids.
Yoder’s Department Store and Yoder’s Red Barn & Yoder’s Meat & Cheese - all on Van Buren. Ben’s Pretzels and E&S are popular if you’re hungry for a snack/lunch.
ATTRACTIONS
Dutch Creek Farm Animal Park – just 10 minutes from downtown Shipshewana, this is a great place to take the kids if you have extra time. You can take a safari-style wagon ride through the farm and feed the exotic animals – Antelopes, Water Buffalo, Zebras, etc. There’s also a petting zoo with goats, pigs, monkeys, deer, etc.
