It also is family-owned and features Amish cheese and other local products. It actually sells a ton of cheese each week, as well as a variety of other lo- cally made goodies including chocolate covered bacon, baked goods, chocolate, meats and mustards. Bring a cooler because you will surely want to bring some home. Nearby is the P. Graham Dunn Fac- tory Store that offers another great shop- ping opportunity with the wow factor. If you are like me, you probably never heard of the company. It mainly sells wholesale to home décor stores around the country, Canada, and beyond. You have probably seen their wooden carved inspirational signs and home décor items in stores, businesses, and homes. Visitors enter the massive two-sto- ry lobby. Large ornate plaques fill the walls and the lobby houses one of the state’s largest murals. It is a popular stop for families during the Christmas season who come to enjoy the spectacular dé- cor and 25-foot Christmas tree.  The 20,000-foot gift shop on the second floor allows a birds-eye view of the 160,000-foot factory floor below where Amish and “English” work along- side each other. (Amish people refer to non-Amish as “English.”) The fam- ily owned company opened its doors in 1976 a few miles from the family farm that has housed seven generations.
