  • Have you ever been to an Amish auction? My Amish friend Brian set me up with the right clothes, showed me how to shave "Amish style," and set me loose in a massive Amish auction where I got into some competitive bidding with the locals. MORE BELOW ↓

That said I'm also fascinated by his videos in Pakistan or and elsewhere. I'm sure many of the more liberal Amish would be too. The interest and even admiration definitely goes both ways.

In all seriousness I think these people live the best life in this day and age.

We also were banned from drinking alcohol , I wonder how the Amish view drinking and stuff . Honestly I don't have a problem with the whole horse riding thing , I'm fine with it , its also good for the environment because your not releasing garbage into the air , its not particle for me but good for them

    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. This definitely helps debunk a lot of myths and false information those shows have started.

      And, yes! A lot of my family is still Amish and we have always been welcomed with open arms. 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."

My father hunted all around the Holmes Co area & we all at 1 time or another had a taxi service for the Amish. 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.

    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.

    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 UA-cam. 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.

      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).

When he said they helped those outside the community as well, it touched my soul. I am sad that the industry has taken over there. Everything is a brand now. It's lost a little of the unique charm that was exclusive to the area as a consumer. However, I don't have to go far to get the same brands at home.

      With the rampant "I got mine, screw you" mindset in the USA, basically none of the Amish ways would work on any significant scale.
      That's not even taking into consideration the growing trend of being proud of ones ignorance.
      Watching all those in power continue to do nothing more than point fingers while the whole thing burns around them makes me really happy to be observing it from a civilized country.

My grandfather was the local auctioneer & my father and his sisters, inc me & 9 cousins all had taxi service for the Amish at one time or another. My sister and I grew up having Amish babysitters, & when my 2 girls were young & I still lived in OH they had Amish sitters to watch them as well. My dad hunted in Holmes Co, Guernsey co But would love to see the community of Amish (Middlefield & Burton, Ohio). They truly are some of the kindest people, the most awesome craftsmen & women, & I have the best & fondest memories of all the local Amish families I grew up with. Thanks for trip down memory lane.

    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.
