Lancaster — the Lancaster County seat in south-central Pennsylvania, the heart of Pennsylvania Dutch Country and home to the nation’s largest Old Order Amish community outside Ohio, where the richest farmland in the eastern United States has been cultivated by German-speaking settlers since the early eighteenth century — occupies what may be Pennsylvania’s most historically significant and agriculturally productive honey landscape: the Lancaster Plain’s extraordinarily fertile limestone-based soils support a diversity of crops, pastures, and farmstead plantings that create a honeybee paradise of remarkable richness, where the clover pastures of Amish dairy farms, the apple and peach orchards of Lancaster County’s fruit belt, the basswood woodlots that provide summer shade for livestock, and the diverse weedy flora of the county’s thousands of family farms combine to produce a honey of distinctive quality and regional character that reflects more than three centuries of Pennsylvania Dutch agricultural stewardship. Lancaster Central Market — operating since the early 1700s and one of the oldest continuously operating farmers markets in the United States — hosts this mid-October artisan market celebrating Lancaster County’s beekeeping heritage and the Pennsylvania Dutch honey varieties of the Susquehanna Valley, featuring beekeepers from Lancaster, Lebanon, Berks, and Chester counties who maintain hives throughout the Pennsylvania Plain’s farmland, woodlots, and the diverse hedgerows that characterize Lancaster County’s distinctive field-pattern agricultural landscape.
