Intercourse
The town's odd name came from the Colonial term for intersection. At the intersection of Routes 340 and 772, this town is a center of Amish life. Between Intercourse and Bird-in-Hand up the road, the Amish way of life can be explored by observing their farms, crafts, quilts, and various educational experiences.
