10 Reasons Why Lancaster County Should Be On Your Travel List

This past weekend I had the pleasure of exploring the beautiful Lancaster County of Pennsylvania. Here's 10 reasons why you should definitely put this place on your bucket list.

10. Central Market: the country's oldest farmers market


9. Soft Pretzels: Handmade Amish pretzels - hands down the best pretzel I've ever eaten.


8. Twin Valley Coffee: Local, family-made and owned coffee, roasted right in Elverson, PA.
