Where to Shop for Antiques in Geauga County, Northeast Ohio

Geauga County, Ohio, is located about 30 miles east of Cleveland. It is a rural county with the 4^th largest settlement of Amish in the United States as well as farm land, fresh produce (when in season) and of course, antiques. There are many great places to find antiques in Geauga County, some of which I will name here, but keep in mind that there are a lot of little-known second-hand shops you may encounter along the way. Be prepared for the unexpected stop as some of the best finds can be found there.

I am going to start this tour at the furthest point south and move northward. Auntie's Antique Mall is located at 15567 Main Market Road (Rt. 422) in Parkman, Ohio.
