If you want to see how the Amish lived back in the 1940’s, then take a trip to Rockome Gardens in Arcola, Illinois. With over 20+ attractions including an authentic soda fountain, an “enchanted cave,” broom making, and pony rides, you will be sure to find something for everyone. Obviously a lot of the activities are interactive – like “Tic Tac Toe Chicken” – so it’s an ideal and wholesome day trip for children. Rockome also provides lodging, restaurants, and gift shops.
