Why Amish?
A Tradition Worth Continuing
Years ago, the Rush family started A Taste of Amish with a simple idea: bring the quality, flavors, and traditions of Amish Country home to the North Georgia mountains.
They built the store around products that can be a little harder to find in an everyday grocery store—traditional Amish-country foods, deli meats and cheeses, bulk and pantry goods, old-fashioned sweets, and other specialty items that remind us of a simpler way of doing things.
Today, as Robert & Amanda Hefner continue the story of A Taste of Amish & General Store, that original idea remains an important part of who we are.
So, why Amish?
Because we believe there’s still something special about tradition, quality, good food, friendly service, and a small-town general store where people are happy to see you walk through the door.
We’re proud to preserve what the Rush family started while also bringing in new products, new ideas, and more reasons for our community to shop local.
