Looking for some ideas for an Amish theme.
I like to give sealed food, like to have a classy look, and want to spend less than $3 total on each.
First I was thinking yogurt, granola bag and a fruit but I am thinking maybe I shouldn't do that.
Any other ideas? I bought raffia ribbon and a wooden spoon for the yogurt already.

Taken from an article about Amish food:

Traditional Amish food includes dishes like tasty roasted chicken, creamy mashed potatoes & gravy, seasoned vegetables, fresh bread, and homemade jam. The Amish are also known for excellent baked goods, especially pies, cookies, breads, cakes, and fry pies.

What about a bread roll, butter, jam and some butter cookies?

Yogurt sounds horrible.
Not for MM.

No idea, but if you can't find I would buy from bakery and individually package in self sealing cellophane bags, stick it on the side of a jar of jam and tie the whole thing up with your raffia string.

I live near Amish country and pie and preserves (jam) is the answer. That’s what all the tourists love to buy from them.

Bonne Maman has the cutest mini jam jars but I don’t know where to buy them. World Market used to sell them for 99 cents but it closed.
