AMISH 101

Amish Lifestyle

All aspects of Amish life are dictated by a list of written or oral rules, known as the Ordnung, which outline the basics of the Amish faith and help to define what it means to be Amish. For an Amish person, the Ordnung may dictate almost every aspect of one's lifestyle, from dress and hair length to buggy style and farming techniques. The Ordnung varies from community to community and order to order, which explains why you will see some Amish riding in automobiles, while others don't even accept the use of battery-powered lights.
