Amazing stuff.

ya I like the series , nice content . So I was wondering what their views are on clothing items like shorts or short jeans , I grow up in a culture where you don't wear shorts and you don't wear anything tight , mostly loose fit and stuff , it was mostly jeans or regular long pants that people wore , I'm no longer religious or anything but I was wondering what their views are on different clothing styles . We also were banned from drinking alcohol , I wonder how the Amish view drinking and stuff .

Peter, it needs to be said: I found your channel through the Chassidic series, specifically the Shabbat dinner video which popped up randomly on my feed. What you’re doing is here probably the most incredible thing I’ve ever seen on KZbin. What you’re providing here is what people typically have to travel for, and most of us don’t have the means or the time. And even if we can explore the world, meaningfully penetrating these communities we aspire to learn about is usually too difficult for the average traveler. I’ve learned so much about life itself learning about these different cultures. I take mental notes about every community you present; how to live more simply from the Amish, how to structure family raising from the Jewish, how to overcome environmental challenges from your Brooklyn videos, and so on. This is how we overcome cultural and religious hate. Of course these communities have their internal problems, but I’ve learned that these groups that are often punchlines in the Western world are beautiful, and there’s a reason they’ve survived. Thank you.

Thank you for doing all these Amish videos! I'm a Yoder and my dad was raised Amish and grew up in Holmes County. He eventually moved down to Plain City, where I was born and raised (live in Texas now). A lot of my relatives are still Amish and live in Holmes County. The Mt Hope Auction is a huge part of my childhood. They have another similar one but for kidney-related health that was actually started by my grandmother. I remember going up every year to help with food and several other things. One of my fondest memories. We spent a lot of time in Holmes County with my Amish relatives when I was young. All these videos bring back such great memories! Also, my grandparents had a home right there in Pinecraft where you were in Florida. We would go down every spring break and stay with them. I just love the great job you did with portraying the Amish. For so long, there have been so many shows that portray the Amish the wrong way.

For as long as I can remember (I'm 44), all of our family get-togethers have always had a lot of Amish there. My uncle (who was still Amish up until his death a couple years ago) and his family would often host our yearly family reunions at their farm in Sugarcreek. We actually just had one there 2 years ago and it was half Amish half "English."

Every year we took a group at Christmas to the Metzenbaum Center as some of their family who had mental handicaps put on a Program & my grandpa used to take whichever grandkids (I went w/him for many years) to support our Amish friends and neighbors. I now have lived in Tx for almost 20 yrs & before that spent many yrs on Columbus' far westside & drove through Plain City regularly, but miss the community dearly, (not the cold weather,lol) I thought I'd say hello from 1 Buckeye to another, & I'll bet we both have some great stories we could share, ie like the 1st time I saw a buggy going thru the drive thru of McDonald's in the early 80's.

The Amish are NOT the most empathetic people you will ever meet when it comes to animal welfare. They will take care of their horses and cattle only as much as it takes to keep them working and producing. A buggy horse might be tied up for hours in the hot sun with no shade or water, tormented by flies because the owners won’t put fly spray on them. I’ve never seen my neighbors call a veterinarian. If an animal is sick they usually only try some home remedy. Sometimes it works, usually it doesn’t. That applies mostly to horses, cattle, and other livestock. As for cats and dogs, they are not pets. You’ll never see one inside the home or even in a doghouse and they don’t buy dog/cat food for them. They just wander about the place and are expected to feed themselves on whatever they can scrounge up. They find shelter in whatever place they can, whether it is -20 or 95 outside. The Amish will not interact with them by talking to them (other than an order) or petting them. They are never spayed or neutered so you can expect to see litter after litter running around the barnyard. Very few will survive past a year or two. Some buy a dog from a breeder for varmint control. Those are the puppy mills that others have mentioned. I’ve seen one or two of those mills and I can’t imagine a worse place to live. Great Pyrenees and Australian Shepherds are common varmint dogs. And as for outright cruelty, that’s more common than you might think. I’ve seen Amish beat a recalcitrant horse or dog mercilessly. I once saw our neighbor kids tormenting a small kitten while it cried and cried (I never saw that kitten again).

Thank you, Peter, for making these videos. I've thoroughly enjoyed the entire Amish series. Your KZbin channel deserves an Emmy and Peabody.

Of course we have lots of volunteer services and initiatives but I'm talking about the people just talking care of each other. Great that there are the communities out there that still value this.

When I was watching your first videos in this series I was really hoping you'd be able to get in on an Auction or Wedding. Those two things are the best feelings in their culture. Everyone coming together and being a tight community. 1000 likes for this series! It's been so enjoyable to see it again after a few years being away. (I'm English but spent a few years as a teenager in an Amish community) I love the peace and community of the Amish. Most of us English don't have this kind network and love for each other.

[@nicksurfs1]

I’ve always had good interactions with the Amish. They’ve got the best selection in our farmers market. They quit offering plastic bags way before it was cool. A while ago I found out they don’t drive. I was at staples and an Amish woman came up to me and asked if I could drive her to the fabric store just down the road. Of course I did, I got a little fabric too. We had a good chat, it was an unexpected but fun experience.

[@juliadubinski4281]

Been wholeheartedly loving this series. What a beautiful community they have created over the years. You have documented it so eloquently (as you always do). This video in particular was so much fun, your smile and energy was infectious during the auction!! Best content, you're very talented.

[@patrickackerman1917]

This is amazing. I've lived in Ohio my whole life. I've always been around the Amish. I've worked in their communities. I've learned so much more about them watching this series than I've learned my whole life. I used to collect blood. Their Bishop's required the whole community to donate. It always bothered me they supplied the bulk of of the Cleveland region blood supply. They donate far more than they receive. I could run a drive in the middle of a heavily populated area and not collect a lot but their small communities would keep us busy all day long. They were lined up down the street all day.

Well to be a bit of critic - Peter hasn't left his English world just by spending a few hours hanging around with the Amish. If he did it for a whole year that would be different.

[@marlissfern2710]

@@LarryKapp1 Obviously after a year being fully immersed there would have to be a major difference. But I respectfully disagree. I think he’ll notice the change dramatically. I know I sure would! Just seeing how he’s acting and having been disconnected from the outside world in a short period of time can give you a new perspective on life. There’s always little things we can take with us and apply to our busy lives. Should one want to of course.

This series has been so good. I love the lives they all live its much more about family and community than everyone for themselves. It makes me realise how much TV and Devices have made us all so isolated.

I am not Amish nor have I really learned much about them aside from the stereotypes... but as an "English" person I have to say that this is incredible. My boyfriend's family attends a church and they did an auction a few weeks ago of cakes, pies, and other desserts. The money goes to a local Methodist group home to buy Christmas gifts for the kids. It was absolutely amazing to watch and some of these cakes went for $300!!! When I go to buy furniture I may have to look into an Amish store/auction. I've been to a few of their stores while traveling Appalachia areas but have never had a need/money to buy their beautiful hand-crafted furniture.
