Did you know . . . that Plain folks were into social networking long before computers and Facebook?
“What is the “Sustainable Furnishings Council” and how is it connected with the AMISH and solid hardwood furniture?”
How could the AMISH not be connected to a healthy planet EARTH. We are all concerned about our environment and there is no other culture that supports natural and responsible living more than the AMISH in their lives every single day.
Old Order Amish are forbidden to own cars and they travel in horse-drawn buggies.
While they can’t own a car, they are permitted to accept rides from Englischers – the term for non-Amish folks.
Well…….let me give you an update on my first day on my first trip to Ohio Amish Furniture Country. The area that we buy in is in the Holms Township, in thishilly and beautiful township of small towns and farms of 40,000 people 19,000 are Amish, pretty much every other farm and the second largest tourist area. But which ones were the Amish?
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!! - from all of us at Amish Furniture by Burress
We can all take a lesson from the Amish.....be grateful for what we have. Pretty simple and speaking of simple.....we are all very lucky to have what we have in this wonderful life, but remember the Amish have a simpler way, a simpler outlook.....and a great profound peace. Maybe we should slow down and take a hint from the Amish.
