Amish 101

Amish dress

By: Bruce Stambaugh

Amish clothing styles encourage humility and separation from the world and are a practical expression of their faith. The Amish fashion styles are simple and meant to be functional.

Amish food

By: Bruce Stambaugh

Food is one of the methods of celebration among the Amish. Sharing a meal or a snack is a great way to fellowship.

Photography and the Amish

Photography and the Amish

Most non-Amish think it’s against their religion to be photographed. It’s actually not against an Amish person’s religion to be photographed.
