Welcome to Amish country

 

ROCK ISLAND, ILLINOIS (May 29, 2019) — Join the Quad City Botanical Center (QCBC) and Rock Island Parks and Recreation as we journey to Hazelton, Iowa, home to one of Iowa’s largest Amish communities.

Experience this unique culture with the help of a step-on guide. With horse and buggies passing by, we will visit several Amish country stores, tour an Amish farm and home, and savor all the flavors of a home-cooked Amish meal.

Learn about Amish history and customs as we spend a relaxing day in the Iowa countryside. Trip includes deluxe motorcoach-transportation departing from the Botanical Center in Rock Island, step-on guide, all tours, lunch, and QCBC tour escort.
