Amish In The Bible Belt


The Horse And Buggy Go Well With The Sign Above

Amish are a people that base their lives around
family and religion.

I do not remember Amish in our part of Kentucky when I was growing up.

Amish have grown to a big population in
Christian County. They have bought up a great
deal of the farm land close to where I grew up.

Mennonites lived near by but they can use tractors, the Amish that live here cannot
use tractors for work or even for driving to town
like the Mennonites .

Everything is done either with mules or horses.

It is a quiet life without the sounds of modern
machinery but one that would be physically hard.
