Amish or Mennonite? Collinsville Alabama Trade Day August 2019

[@raytycker1656]

I live in Dekalb county and we have a few mininites. No Amish that I'm aware of .

[@luciushale7766]

Heck yea from cullman XD "they bring school kids here to.. teach em.. that's how to handle your problems i guess idk" 😂😂

AT 5:42 to your right down in the holler is an old abandoned play ground. And it was to hot Saturday @104 deg.

Smart man parking in the shade. Haven't been to a flea market in awhile, I need my fix.

[@marydegenkolb9603]

I had a Crown Vic Country Squire station wagon when Desert Storm hit. I was in Texas, Giddings, and the Peanut farmer knew my mom. So he gave me a 100 lb. bag of raw, shelled Spanish peanuts to make brittle for my husbands soldiers in Iraq. I made over 150 lbs. of brittle the time he was there. I'm going to go with Amish. I love boiled peanuts.

“Some Year?” 🤦🏻‍♀️🤷🏻‍♀️😂😂 your on a roll. Fun flea market. ~ Texas

[@kayesdigginit1519]

I believe I'll refrain from stating either way. I lived in Mennonite country in west Texas and my mother grew up living near the largest population of Amish in Iowa ☺ I love flea markets but only go when the temperatures are below 90° 👍 I live only 1 hour from Canton Texas; Google their 1st Monday trade days!!

[@beckysweeps9748]

Great buys today! Fun video 👍

[@spermdonar]

My bride likes flea markets more than I do..we don't have one that big around here but a couple are sufficient..nice place even in the heat

[@mike2400]

Nice to see all the people.

[@MNpicker]

Hutterites🤔

[@welshdragon79]

Just out of curiosity, is Ol' Blue a V6 or a 4cyl?

[@ExploringAlabama]

V6

[@Ottedikkie]

Heartless people selling animals and keeping them in the hot sun without shade or water 😠

[@melodychastain4616]

Oh give it a rest already.

[@jillybean9329]

I tried boiled peanuts...once. 😒 How long before your tongue wasn't dark purple anymore? 😆 Sugar🐞

[@edwardmunson3896]

Jilly Bean, hate to tell you but that wasn't caused by Boiled Peanuts!

[@jillybean9329]

@@edwardmunson3896 yes I know...I was referring to the snow cone.

[@edwardmunson3896]

@@jillybean9329 Thank goodness. I guess I missed the mention of the snow cone. You nearly made me swear off boiled peanuts. I gave up blue cotton candy 30 years ago for the same reason.

Cool swamp meet!

[@EricK-to6zi]

I love old blue 🥰🥰🥰

[@gretchenm5400]

Amish would not ever wear flip flops. It is not Plain.

[@awlkdural5396]

@ Gretchen M They do wear flip flops, the ones around southern Illinois do at least.

[@gretchenm5400]

@@awlkdural5396 I guess the Amish around PA are stricter. Times are looser too. The Amish women I grew up with wore black hose and plain black shoes.

[@stephanietruly3447]

Just looking at their clothing, I would guess Amish. At the Mennonite bakery here, they dress a little more modern.

[@donnagraham3758]

Not sure but hat u want may be called foreign legion hats.

[@ALABAMAHEADHUNTER]

I'm headed up to Collinsville today to get a giant bag of raw peanuts . I boil them myself and give them away at the Fall Festival and car show at the Moody Park the first weekend in October . Come on over and see us !

[@digdugs57]

EA Those are Amish. The Mennonites do not adhere to strict dress codes like the Amish, unless they are Old Order Mennonites. Just thought I would let you know we have a town called Collinsville here in Oklahoma. In fact, I worked my very first job at a Simple Simon's Pizza in that little town. I want add that the Amish do not liked to be filmed or photographed. They believe it is of the devil because it is modern technology. So next time you may wanna ask them if they want to be filmed. My sister got admonished by an old Amish man for taking pictures of his family. Luckily I was able to calm him down when he realized this Auslander(outsider) spoke German. We had a nice convo and I promised him my sister would never do that again.

[@ExploringAlabama]

So I could have woo'd them with German? I'll try that next time. I remember a little "wo ist der Bahnhof"

[@digdugs57]

@@ExploringAlabama I don't know if "where is the train station?" will get you anywhere but you can give it a try lol. Most Amish, Mennonites, and Hutterites speak Pennsylvania Dutch which is a blend of English and Palantine German. So you will be able to carry on a convo but keep in mind you and him will be speaking different dialects of German. There may be some misunderstandings so be patient. They are very kind people and easy to get along with.

[@donnagraham3758]

Put hanker chief under back of hat

[@johnlawrence9957]

Love swap meets. Haven't been to one in quite a while. Never seen an Amish person around here.

[@timothysoddy3780]

I thought you got a bargain on the hats and shoes.

[@stratos150]

My family on my Mother's side is who Collinsville is named for. You should check out the Turkey trot day this fall.

[@lisauptagrafft2010]

Ahh, EA jr. needs a pig, daddy! 🐖

[@kylerbeene6133]

I live in collinsville and trade day is always over crowded

[@billsmoke9824]

HOW OFTEN ARE FLEE MARKETS HELD / DO THEY ALLOW DOGS ON LEASES WAS IT WORTH YOUR TIME?

[@ExploringAlabama]

every Saturday, yes dogs everywhere

[@William1221-q1e]

isn't that he place where the daughter of an Indian chief jump off the falls to kill herself so she wouldn't be forced to marry someone that she didn't love? if it is I think they say you can see her ghost at the falls

[@mike2400]

Yes, I think that's what EA said in the video.

[@jaymatthews03]

Roll Tide lol

[@karenandrews8695]

I was introduced to boiled peanuts when we lived in Graceville FL and Dothan, Geneva AL area. I just never liked boiled peanuts. Now roasted peanuts is the way to go.😊

[@rickeymarchman7548]

Great video ROLL TIDE
