REVIEW: Lehman’s

This morning I received an email from Jody Morris, a helpful reader in Virginia. She mentioned the Lehman’s Non-Electric Catalog to me, which I’d never heard of before. Apparently the company started as a supplier to the Amish community, and today they carry a wide range of products that (mostly) don’t use electricity, as well as many other home items.

Lehman’s has a whole section for Eco-Friendly Goods, where you can find several handy home goods. However, the company’s roots are apparent throughout the catalog, which boasts such items as home butchering supplies and oil lamps. Still, Lehman’s is a place where you can find a Coleman lantern alongside an Amish table lamp, so they offer a lot of variety.

I’m particularly interested in the Herbal Home Remedy book, and they carry Tooth Powder from one of my well-documented favorites, Uncle Harry’s. And how could I not be charmed by a book titled Worms Eat My Garbage? This catalog is fantastic, and I’m adding it to my list of Great Companies in my sidebar.

I considered ordering one of their catalogs, but I decided that I’d rather browse inline and save the paper. If you have any experience in ordering from the company, let me know what it was like. I’ll keep you updated if I purchase anything from the catalog myself.
