Amish towns near Toronto?
 
I am planning a vacation to Niagara Falls and Toronto in June. Does anyone know of any Amish/Mennonite communities close to that area of Canada? We would be interested in tours and sightseeing and also I am looking for Amish quilt. Thanks for any info.

Kitchner-Waterloo and the surrounding towns are full of Amish, Mennonite and Germans. Several wonderful farmers markets with food, crafts, etc. You should find what you are looking for there.
