Imagine for a moment what life might be like inside an Amish community. Could you do it? Would you be able to last even one day? Would you even want to live that way? Life on an Amish farm is difficult, even for the Amish themselves, but that’s sort of the whole point.

Farming for the Amish is an important part of keeping the Amish community thriving, but it is not the only thing that brings money to the community. Many Amish men are skilled woodworkers and choose to open their own woodworking shops or go work for one in the community.
