Hello Guys! This is part two of my Amish series. If you want to see PART 1 it's here: ruclips.net/video/z6SlJZk5guI/видео.html
CORRECTION: Also, I shot this video a bit over a month ago. I stated restaurants were closed in San Francisco (other than takeout) which was true at the time I shot this video. Since then outdoor dining has resumed and indoor dining is at 25%.
And this is hopefully just a start with my Amish content. This summer I hope to do a deeper dive in Landcaster County, PA, or Ohio. I need to find the right people to bring me in. Thanks for coming along!
And don't forget to stop in nappanee& bremen indiana!!! Loved the videos
I’ve become a huge fan. I’m a psychotherapist by profession, so it’s a gift to have even a small view on cultural diversity here!
@@OttoDaajeh what mistakes?
ruclips.net/video/lOfZLb33uCg/видео.html
Thanks man for all these videos. I don't usually comment on videos, but man, these past series have helped me see life in general from a different perspective. And i don't mean that from religious point of view.
We hired some amish folks to re shingle our house. They gave us a massive discount,were done in 2 days(big roof) ,AND invited us to their community for a huge community meal. They put a roof up for us AND gave us a free meal. They are truly great people,as down to earth as you can get.
I’d happily build a Koala shelter
God bless🙏
What state do you reside in Koala? Thx
Do they get nervous about money? Like if they got a big pay day would that be a cause for concern?
@@ct6852 What the hell are on about?
Anyone notice how healthy everyone looks? Outdoor pursuits, good food, cycling and no alcohol or smoking. Everyone looks really good.
Yeah it's called being normal
@@OfficialGoldenboy Nope. Approx 40% obesity among American Adults. Thanks for your insights though. Enlightening.
Yes, it a truly beautiful thing indeed.
@@OfficialGoldenboy your loved even tho your a goofball punk
Not sure if Alcohol and Smoking are the main factors. I would say the stress free life is the main contributor to living a healthy life
"Smiling at each other is the most precious gift we have" 🥺💕 I'm crying
I'm Hasidic. It's beautiful to see another community in this great country with family values. The Amish are such hard working people. They keep their traditions, and from my experience they seem much happier than the average New Yorker for sure.
🕎
Well said!
How do you feel about your series he did?
And they don't abuse the system they don't collect food stamps and medicaid like some groups .
"I'ts like being back in the 90s" Exactly! Great times when ppl where actually still living outside instead of in their phones and computer screens ...
Yup. It’s quite sad really isn’t it :(
Those were the daaaaays.
Everyday I miss the 90s more and more. It’s so sad what this world has turned into with technology. Life was so much simpler and so much more joyous back then.
I'd love the relive the 90s all over again. Would be hard to get out of some of the addiction of technology as it's made to be addictive nowadays, especially the TV anymore with Netflix, Hulu, Prime video, etc...where there's always something addicting on them before you used to put the TV on for sports, TV show you like, now it's all right at your fingertips.
Most like 90s of 19th century)
"kinda feels like the 90's..."
When people were actually happy and had meaning in their lives...
Yup. I missed this feeling.
😢😭 damn onions. Sorry i'm just sad because i miss those times. Everything you said is true. All the kids were playing outside with each other and everyone was happy even in hard times . It was truely a blessing to had those times now it's in my memory gone but not forgotten.
before internet and smartphones? Yep. 2 years ago i went to some villages in the mountains of Ukraine, seeing plenty of kids playing on the streets until late evening,without any electronic devices, was something that made me emotional :D You don't see that anymore especially in the West
@@persopolish3212 I had everything as a kid a phone we had a pc, xbox and i had all sorts of gameboys, still i choose my friends over those things. My friends also had evwrything we grew up in a good neighbourhood but playing outside was more fun to us then in.
people are happy and having meaning in their lives today -- it all depends on what you do with your time.
I love these people. They know what's important in life. God family and love.
🙏❤️And Community of People, no ill will on others🤗 Sincerely Patty Sue Chandler-Lindquist
"God family and love"
You just triggered all the internet atheists.
My Grandmother's family left Lancaster Pa in a covered wagon and went to Ohio in the 1800s. On the way, they had to burn their furniture due to the cold but they saved one Governor Winthrop Desk which is still in the family. Eventually, they settled in northeast Indiana. My Great Great Grandfather donated the land for the first Mennonite Church in Leo, Indiana.
Do you ever watch this channel and find yourself smiling? Probably the honesty of this media and the good intentions of Peter and the people he talks to. So refreshing!
This channel helps me a lot.. It restores my faith in humanity
I agree 100% I wish more people watched these types of channels. Mainstream media is so bad for our society..
Yes! Always. It's near perfect.
@@wilburshuman Same, well over 10 years no boob tube, and don't miss it, and its constant stream of commercials, one bit.
Yes quite too often! He definitely is a breath of fresh air to watch!
God bless you, Peter, for trying to bring America together in a time of division
Agreed 🙌🏼
You’ll never see this stuff on mainstream media anymore like they used to show.
Bit dramatic
Absolutely👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻❤️
ruclips.net/video/R5QWoa_QKs4/видео.html
Peter, I am a subscriber from Germany. Love your channel. It gives so much insight into specific groups or areas and you are so kind and sensitive with everybody, always asking the right things. Never stop doing this. We all can learn so much.
I'm from Indonesia. I would say that i really love and respect this community. I hope i would be able to visiting this kind of place :) big thanks to Peter! Greetings from Indonesia!
Thank you Peter! I’ve just recently subscribed and I’m a Mennonite youtuber living here in Sarasota! I love the way you’ve been showing the Amish and Mennonites in the ‘true’ sense! You’ve done an excellent job!
Thank you Lynette for pointing us to this video. The world would be such a better place if everyone had Jesus living in them. Such love and respect for one another.
i love how the restaurant has the same name you have
Omg your a Yoder , I live in Bradenton and I’m obsessed with the restaurant you guys have ! I’m so interested in how you guys live there ❤️
Thank you Lynette for sharing. This was so enjoyable!
I really enjoyed learning more about the Amish and Mennonite in Florida 💓
I've not seen so many smiling happy people, so many bikes and so few cell phones in years. thanks for sharing this.
Peter- you’re so good at this! Just striking up conversation with anyone in a respectful and friendly way. Well done!
These people are so nice it brings a tear to my eyes.
I worked with Amish for about 6-8 months in Topeka, IN and I have nothing but massive respect and reverence for the Amish community. They are wonderful, hard working, and very fun people. Sure, they have their problems and drama, but that's because they're human just like everyone else!
Also, I'd argue that the Amish were the wisest people in this country by deciding to stay away from technology. Technology will be the end of us, and we are seeing a taste of that right now.
Why is technology bad? Facebook, Google, Apple, Twitter, CNN, etc.?
@@cheaserceaser Because it reduces in person human interaction and is a massive platform for propaganda
@@fitcwebb What propaganda? CNN is most trusted news network according to infomercial.
Im moving to Middlebury. Very close to Topeka! Nice place. Quiet and peaceful
@@cheaserceaser Facebook is on record on censoring information during the 2019 Election in order to sway voters a particular way. Google and Apple collect information and routinely passive aggressively mock and disrespect the common man who does not believe what they believe. Twitter is a mess with many crazed, strongly opinionated people who lean left doxxing and bothering those that they disagree with; it is mainly used as a propaganda tool by The Left. CNN has removed its the mask and revealed they're just a left wing propaganda, fear-mongering network.
As Mennonite myself, this was so interesting to see through the eyes of someone that has never been to Pinecraft! I love your openness with people and your honest, non partial journalism. Keep it up! I have a youtube channel as well, that helps others understand us more. Thank you!
Peter, there are actually many Mennonite youtubers.
I’m ready to move. I embraced the community of Pinecraft’s values.
Same here Jeannine!! I love it!! Living here and watching this is so interesting!
Lynette, you were definitely one of the youtubers I was thinking of😊
You got a new subscriber 🙌🏽🙌🏽🙌🏽
“Its a special gift that we have, smiling”. We take it for granted until we don’t have it. But he is so right!
yeah i never thought about it but he nailed it there :O
That brought tears to my eyes.
1000% correct !!
I am originally from San Diego, California and moved here to Wisconsin 9 years ago and I live in an area that has a big Mennonite community. These are some of the best people I have ever had the pleasure of knowing. They are just so amazing because they are there for one another when there is a need. They have helped My family when we had financial difficulties. I’ve had the honor of attending a wedding and a couple funerals. They help when there is a disaster such as the fires that occurred out in California. The Paradise fire. They Went out there and helped that community rebuild and they donate clothing etc. to other Countries etc. I feel very blessed to be living here and interacting with these people. Thank you for having this channel. God Bless You.
Also, the food is Amazing! The grocery stores they have has the freshest food such as meat, cheese etc. I can go on forever on the positive things I love about living here but anyway I would never even Consider moving back to California.
I love the way you reviewed all the beautiful moments during the yodeling! Amazing editing skills.
Yeah I loved that as well!
That woman letting them win so they keep playing, that was so funny
Lol
After watching this, I realized they have more than most of us have.
Which is community
Love and compassion right.
Wo
Too bad it’s based in a lie.
@@michaelchapman1258 you are 100% on point. A lot of them are dissociated from their own feelings. Fear and Shame dictates their lives
I have always been fascinated by the Amish, their culture, values, work ethic, and so on. You have done a brilliant job in revealing their heart, and the core of their message. Thank you so much too, for giving them a voice and not editing or skewing their core messages and beliefs. I envy your work!,
The more I see the Amish community I want to join! These seem like the happiest and most welcoming people I have ever seen..
I wish I knew about the Amish when I was a child. I had a terrible home life, which I won't go into here. I knew I wanted to run away but I didn't know where to go.
The rape and incest are rampant is some communities not all are as happy as they appear , true there are those that are just as kind and wonderful as they appear But knowing 5he rape and incest is off the charts is reason to be weary.
23:00 Who is chopping onions?😭 The way that woman invited you for dinner just like that...❤
Did you go to there house for supper ? Supper is actually what a lot of people call dinner .
@@ozarkview928 Or, dinner is what a lot of people call supper!
@Ceejay Mac Its all for youuu🎶 :)
@Ceejay Mac tell me what kind of person em I?
ruclips.net/video/R5QWoa_QKs4/видео.html
I have to say, the whole time watching this video i was smiling. Made me realize how far off track we've become as a society and how toxic my city and culture is. This video made my day cause it brought back memories of how great things were back then and that it actually still can exist. I could see, hear and feel how genuine and sincere these peoples love and kindness for one another was. Thank you for this video and for giving me hope in society again :)
I’m from the Netherlands and this video reminded me of how my grandparents lived 30 years ago, only with shitty weather.😝 Many things about “their” way of life are still present here, but it also shows me that the devil won many battles here.
Don't delude yourself in thinking that they are happy. There's alot of shaming in their cult. Sexuality is repressed. No thank you.
Im just finding this video, while watching I scrolled to see if anyone else commented about smiling the whole time. Yes, theres problems within the Amish (I have a friend whos ex Amish and have heard a lot), but theres problems within all groups of people. I just love how they are all happy without a phone in their hand, and in no rush to get anywhere.
@@raffellorosenbergi9094 damn how sad your life must be if "sexuality"is whatvmakes these folks bad. 🤦🏻♂️
@@Jeff1999100 lol exactly. Sex is the be or end all to some people. Peculiar.
It’s a precious gift we having smiling had me crying
I live in West Tennessee on the boarder of Tennessee & Kentucky.
We love our Amish friends ❣️
I’ve often wished we lived in there community .
It’s a “real” community .
They take care of one another.
Look out for one another.
The way it should be everywhere.
They put God first and that’s why there’s no stress.
I love being there and watching their daily lives .
It’s humbling and a beautiful way to live .
Amen totally agree
Watching this while I live in California Bay Area makes my heart hurt, people are so cold and turned off here, no eye contact, no welcoming smiles here. Sad
I share your same sentiments.
I’m there too. Not how it is... maybe you are just weird lol
@@cb.1212the same Minnesota where leftists took over half of Minneapolis and burned down a bunch of businesses just because they weren't owned by black people? Where you can't even go into the mall of America without someone being beaten almost to death or rapid? Yeah what a great fkin state lmfao!
@@kimjongun5172 you're either ignorant or lying.
Theres still time to get out
What a mess we have become as human beings, we all need to take a page out if the Amish/mennonite book and live by it. Thank you Peter for your always inspiring works!
I sound easy but it's called denying the flesh! And not too many people want to live by that!
I know did u see how clean everyone's yards were?
I'm from Venice and we used to go up to Yoder's occasionally. Rode the motorcycles up there. I love it and love their peanut butter pie... to die for. Great bunch of folks. Nice ending Peter... video excellent, sound great and editing superb. Showing clips of happy people with the song playing was so artistic. Brilliant.
I can't get over how lovely they all are. What a wonderful example of humanity. You're the most welcomed man on the planet.
No fat obese Amish
My late husband worked with an Amish man for a bit & we were invited to fish his families pond. Let me tell you we caught a stringer and they invited us back for a fish fry on the 4th of July. That was, and still is to this day, the best fish fry I've ever attended. The food was absolutely amazing. They were extremely accommodating and told us we were now family & welcomed us back anytime.
teared up a little bit during the yodel flashbacks....Maybe I am an emotional mess, but this is the America I served for! Thanks for sharing and I will look to the future and that this can be the whole world!!
Thank you for your service!
You served to kill innocent people for the interest of your state in the name of democracy. Amish people are selfsufficient and dont promote violance to gain oil
This warmed my heart. When I was young I was aware of the Amish and I respected them. I knew they were strong in their faith and known to be hard workers. What I didn't realize was how most are so open and good hearted. I know they utilize modern conveniences a bit more then days of old, but this still goes to show how the materialistic desires from the rest of us rarely lead to a similar level of happiness and content. Well done.
Not so much they desire materialism it's just to stay competitive sometimes it's necessary.
I love how humble and peaceful these people the old man with the laugh made my day
I nearly cried at the purity of this!.
No kidding
Jesus Christ is lord of their lives, that’s for sure.
I definitely geared up a bunch. This shows me how much our mainstream society has left behind.
Having grown up Hasidic and having seen your series on the Hasidic community and your account was so genuine and honest, I know that this series will be an honest and unadulterated view into the Amish community!
Hasidic Jews seem like really awesome and fun people. They definitely appreciate America and her freedoms.
As EVERY extreme religion. Amish, Hasidic, etc....Peter just covered the surface. There is a lot more to see underneath it all.
@@monicack523 he is not trying to cover the religion as much as the community and way of life. Which he does very well but still if you don't live it you will not understand. There is a difference between just believing something and actually living your life and acting with the principles of Faith gives you a much bigger purpose and feeling of connection that will make ppl happier than freedom to do what you want even though it might not be good for you as we see in a lot of society problems today
@Popeye That irony when you actualy sound like fascist... but as for you as westerner you are excused ofcourse and it doesnt surpirise when you use/overuse words like fascist without knowing their meaning.
@@monicack523 Peter doesn't make these videos to convert people to Amish or Hasidic Judaism, you know? He's doing this to show us all communities which a lot of us don't get the chance to see especially if we don't live in America, and with these videos he's trying to show us the reality of those people and how their communities look like, and trying to get an opinion from the inside. I am pretty sure most of his viewers are intelligent enough to know that these communities are not perfect but we can still learn a lot from them and start to appreciate the things that we no longer pay attention to. I live in a Jewish community although I'm not Jewish, but I appreciate a lot of things at these people and I have learned a lot from seeing them every day. There's things to learn from everywhere, you just need to have an open mind and be less judging, nobody is telling you to join their community.
Peter’s gonna be growing a beard before we know it! I absolutely envy the simple life and really long for its return. We think technology makes our lifes simpler when in reality it only complicates things,
Wherever you go you always say lots of open people, I must say they way you interact with people makes it very difficult to not be open :) GREAT job Peter.
Major respect
what a difference between the mainstream media reporting on things and this. Such a blessing. Thank you, Peter!
At the end my eyes watering up and thought there's still hope for us in the 🇺🇸!!! All of us as Americans need to take note on how to have a beautiful community.
How true !
No hope for the "US" as it stands. The Amish though? They will survive and thrive.
The rest of us are circling the drain.
@@felixthecat4584 As it stands...no, probably not. But that's why Greg said what he said.
Yep me to as it does give you hope, hope all is ok for you, I keep trying in my community but seeing no hope, I got somewhere before Covid, but way to separated now, I can’t see it getting better in my community it’s turning more segregated more ghetto like, so I’m looking to relocate.
Your right the Republican led nonsense is finally dying out so there is no hope as it stands@@felixthecat4584
I must say. I am a man who has many gripes against religion, after years of bad memories, but I have the largest consequtive smile on my face right now that I have had in a long time. The Norwegian word is for this is "koselig". The Icelandic word is "Huggulegt"
For Peter to think that $21.61 is a bargain for a typical meal for one person would be a giveaway that he lives in San Francisco, largely considered (along with NYC), to be one of America's most expensive city, if not the most.
7% tax on food in Florida, plus he had the desert.
Peter does an amazing job in overturning stereotypes; he did it with the Saudis, Hadisic Jews, Pakistanis and now the Amish.
Thank you for showing us the truth and a different perspective to the world!
The people in the community are so lovely. They are teaching me a lot 🙏🏾❤️
Community = communication + unity
Imagine if we were all this kind, relaxed and welcoming? This world would be great. Makes me want to live there. Another great video!
It's one thing to be friendly, and another to be friendly when you're hungry. They let him skip the whole line. Wow.
Yeah that impressed me too.
I am Australian and in our culture one of the most sacred common-sense rules is to respect the line to everything. Everyone follows that rule no matter where they are. What the Amish did for Peter right there was special in my view. Let alone the fact that Peter is not Amish either. Man ! That tells you everything you need to know about Pinecraft’s Amish/Mennonite people.
Couldn't you tell it wasn't the people waiting in line who let him skip but that he was called in by the restaurant workers? Some of those waiting actually looked a bit upset to me. This is publicity for them, of course they let him skip.
Anyone else smiling? Overwhelmed by the friendliness of these people. It's heartwarming, really. Pls do more Amish video's!
Your videos of the Amish have been really eye opening! They are great people that just live differently than the world. They seem very hospitable to outsiders. The food looked great!
Growing up in Ohio for 44 years I seen tons of great Amish people . kind hearted . now I live in Kentucky and our Amish are just as kind . great video
LOL! Pennsylvania Dutch here. I am enjoying this series.
... And I’ve subscribed to your channel, - you sure make a lot of delicious food! 🍲😄😄😄
I'm Pennsylvania Dutch as well. Have you visited Lancaster, Bird in Hand and Intercourse ?
what does pennsylvania dutch mean because im a dutch from europe the netherlands so im verry curious
@@dutch2smoked927 We call ourselves Deitsch, misunderstood as Dutch. Related, but different. Many vocabulary cognates, but not close enough to be mutually intelligible.
@@dutch2smoked927
Dutch is called dutch in english because the dutch counties were the places of the holy roman empire of german nations to trade with England.
Back then there was no separate netherlandish identity, so they called themselves deutsch, i.e. dutch when rendered in english.
This is what a really healthy community looks like. I hope I can find something like this someday. Family and community are important, it's not good to be hyper-individual, because you'll end up in most cases feeling hyper-alone and depressed.
Your always start out with a smith and openness, asking for their openness. You are such a fine example to show the best parts of every situation. We have traveled to all 50 states and 62 countries and have found a smile and a gesture/question is the best way to start a conversation. We have had wonderful experiences all over the world. You are SO good at what you do! Keep going and bring the world together.
I'm from the UK and I really really enjoyed your video. I'd love to live that simple, good, happy, relaxed, community life. Keep up the good work.
Not sure how possible or inviting this would be, but I’d love to see you cover communities in the Appalachians, there’s some real interesting folk out there with a way of life not many know
Check out soft white underbelly
@@eoindolly1991 That's where my idea came from :D love his channel
I live in the most northern part of Appalachia and right next to Holmes County (where a lot of these Amish folks live) and the Amish are just like everyone else...mostly nice, if you get to know them.
ruclips.net/video/R5QWoa_QKs4/видео.html
It would be great to see a Teenager perspective of the Amish Life
I didnt see many young people (20-30s) around either...
@@ponysoldier6770 that is because they are working -- not normally hanging out in a retirement village :-)
The kids do what kids do. They go to Siesta Key beach its 15 minutes away. They dont play Bacci or shuffle board.
Beautiful "story". Beautiful energy. Thank you from Czech Republic.
I watched 2 episodes straight. Thank you for bringing this way of life to us. I think that the whole world has to go back to our roots. Those people are smiling all the time and are so welcomed to strangers. Thank you sooooo much for this Peter. Wished you had a 3rd episode to share with us. 👏👏👏👏👏
Mmm. No.
As a 5th gen native Floridian who loves country music and bluegrass, I can definitely say the yodeling day was my favorite 😍 you can also tell it has a strong Christian influence to the music.
I love how they all take their fair share of time to try to spread the gospel of Jesus Christ to as many people as they can. ☺️
Christ in them is what people are seeing…..
What if we are just interested in their life and don't want to hear that? Can't people just live without being dictated to by some bronze age book. Live and let live, drop the book and be free.
@@Nuffsed81 You worship hedonism
@@phukyew14'You worship doing enjoyable things over nonsense'.
Lol Jesus is not real there is no heaven and hell if there is why you are not in it right 😂😂
I recently moved from Georgia to Ohio, and have driven through every county in Ohio to explore my new state. I was shocked at how many horses and buggies I saw. It was fascinating. This Pinecraft settlement reminds me a lot of the Hasidic Jews on vacation in South Florida as well. I guess everyone wants a break :P
It’s so crazy that we come into contact with so many people on a daily basis that we never have actual communication with & everybody has there own life that we could learn from & that’s exactly what your channels about, love it!
The community seems genuinely happy
@@marcopolo1134 well said!
Shoulda yelled "HEY JOHN!" into the crowd and see how many of the men turned and looked at you.
😂👍🏼
Says a John 😂
Or..."Hey Mr. Yoder!" ☺️☺️
AYY YO EZEKIEL!
Lol
Amish food kinda seems like Thanksgiving everyday type vibe
I'm spanish, but now I want to be an amish sooo bad! Thanks for your amazing video ❤️❤️❤️
It’s like being a kid again, waiting a week for the next installment of your favorite show.
Edit: Bocce is probably my favorite yard game.
it's called bocce in italian, you pronunce the e as in Elephant
Its basically like Pétanque in France
Same, man!! I was waiting all week for this dude to drop the next video. I am loving his series on the Amish people and I just discovered his channel just about a week ago.
@@nnn-ce3wj Thanks for pointing that spelling error out, had a braindead moment when I first wrote it.
@@billybobjohnadamjoe no worries it was mostly for other people who would read the comments
These people are really blessed. Such a good spirit. It's infectious 🌷🌿 Hallelujah 😍🌹
I am a Muslim and love the closeness and the community these people have. They're living a real life
we have an Amish resturant close by my home in Southern Ontario. The food is wonderful and yes, the baking is so good !
There's a Mennonite community somewhere near Sarnia in Southwestern Ontario that used to cross into the US to shop about once a month. They came together in what we called the "Mennonite van" -- an extra long model. I worked in the hardware department at Sears in Port Huron, so I had quite a few as customers.
Peter’s videos are so refreshing. America is truly a country of great people, great diversity and tremendous opportunity. I’ve seen the best in humanity from Americans of all backgrounds. Keep up these socially important videos Peter, thank you.
I chuckled every time you said " key lime " instead of " lemon meringue ". I kept thinking he just REALLY want the key lime.
I am enjoying your videos.
me too 😆
Such beautiful people, such a precious community 🥺
There is no better culture. We have lived among Amish for 2 years now and when we move we will be among them again. Never ever will we live apart from them. They are a breath of fresh air
"Italy? Where is that?" lmao
That was so funny lol. Just some little unknown country without much of a history :P
@@melkeith9 lmao
Haha yea he was probably thinking at first he was naming a company or something cause he didnt know the game was from the country lol
That's what an 8th grade education gets you.
They only go to school through eighth grade and they don't study geography or world history
I live in Lancaster, PA. If you need anything when you visit let me know :) My wife knows a lot about the Amish here.
I live near Hershey PA and although my wife and family are Atheist we love the Amish/Mennonite culture. We shop at a Mennonite grocery store and love the community and PA Dutch food lol.
Our house foundation was built by Amish and when we took pictures of construction they turned their heads so we respected them and stopped taking pictures. They hit a soft spot in my heart lol.
Thanks for making my world a little bigger! I am grateful for these windows into humanity.
What’s really interesting is that the Hasidic community that you previously covered, visits Lancaster PA in droves a couple of times a year (during holidays) etc. The parallels between these two communities is pretty remarkable.
Being a Lancaster native, im curious as to what makes the Lancaster Amish so "different"
@@andrewdavidson143 well being a lancaster native, do you personally see a difference? Like with camera stuff for example
Yess!! I say that all the time lol, im jewish myself and even though the amish and hasidim have some stark differences they are so so similar its kinda crazy
My social skills after watching this have highly increased.
Same 😂
I feel like a lot of people who are written off as having ‘poor social skills’ in modern society actually have social skills that are just fine, but refuse to adapt to a deeply toxic environment. Living in this kind of community I think those problems socialising that are too often medicated away would quickly disappear.
@@rpbmpn you nailed it, I totally agree, especially with this era of social media, if you notice making connections with older folks than younger people is a huge difference, you gotta have this type of “clouty” personality with millennials and gen z.
I’m just blown away by this video ( and part 1 ) Peter . The Amish people appear to have a very peaceful and , I hope , contented life . Thank you for taking the time to go and discover what , I assume , most of us were unaware of . Best regards from England.
Peter, you seem so purely happy around the Amish communities... just, something in your eyes lights up. 🥰
These vids have been great to watch, thank you. It reminds me that America is more then what the world sees and hears through main stream media. Be safe out there.
I grew up in a very protestant environment in the North of the Netherlands (where some of the Calvinist/Lutherian Amish roots are from) and I recognise so much in this. My most religious family members would live very frugal, sensible lives but their main devotion was absolutely to the community and the family.
@Paride Scordo No they dont. And they wouldnt be able to. In the Netherlands people dont have much tolerance for conservative religion, or any religion really. You cant be too different here. Much more freedom, diversity and tolerance in the US.
@Paride Scordo The Christians and Jews got it easy. You should see how they treat Muslims in places like the Netherlands and France. And they call themselves tolerant🤣🤣
@@jaydawg2023 Didnt the IRS of your country discriminate Muslims on PAPER and OFFICIAL. Now imagine if you did that to Jews.
I’m from Pennsylvania, I grew up here and I have seem Amish all my life… They’re such great people and we all have things to learn from them…
I think I've been binge watching your videos for 5 hrs straight. It's the content and intention that I want to see on TV and in many documentaries but don't get at all.
TV died 20 years ago.. it's all here now. as long as you have the discipline to block out the cheap rubbish and trash that is also plenty on the internet, the internet is a goldmine
From Indiana:
I’ll never forget being at a family party and an Amish family was there.
I was amazed at seeing their 3 kids in chairs reading and seeing normal American kids going crazy over toys right next to them, it was eye opening.
So long as this is just to point out a difference in cultures than fine. But lets not say that sitting and reading is somehow better than playing for children, because it flat out isn't. Playing encourages language development, social skills and emotional and intellectual development. To have time to think freely and explore your creative mind is essential for a well rounded development. Sitting and reading is also a necessary skill, they are both essential for children.
@@nancyneyedly4587 Agree but when I go into a friends house and there is 50 toys across the floor and we are medicating them to the highest degree to get them to sit in unison. Makes me question this “progress”.
@@adamschroering741 Most people are not medicating their children to keep them in line though. Also for every child that is medicated there’s an Amish child that does because they didn’t believe in modern medicine, of course they all don’t do that, just like we all don’t medicate our children. We have different cultures, each can have some better aspects and some not so better aspects.
@@mcearl8073 I apologize for sounding monolithic. It was an anecdotal experience but a profound one.
@@adamschroering741 No worries. It’s just very hard to take in the whole picture based off one one little snippet of it is all I’m saying. Those kids might have been sitting there being well behaved because they are good kids raised with respect or they could have been sitting there out of fear of what will happen if they move. My ex worked for CYS here in Pa and they’d get called out to the Amish towns quite often. Once was because they had their kid chained to a tree to keep it from running while they worked in the field.
On an unrelated note, this was a great video but in my opinion it’s not really giving the most accurate insight to the Amish. This community is far different than most, it literally is like Vegas for the Amish and he even said “what happens in Florida stays in Florida” most of them are either on vacation or have retired there, usually to escape the very strict rules of their home sect. I don’t think they are bad people or anything, quite the opposite, I just think a lot are living in fear of their bishop or fear of god or fear of being shunned by the church and their community.
There’s another good documentary on here somewhere that’s around 2 hours about 2 guys who got shunned/excommunicated and all they were doing is getting together to study the Bible. That was against their rules, reason being if they read the Bible they’d realize most of their rules taught by the bishop are not Gods rules at all. His own dad was a deacon at the church.
I think the town in this video is probably the best possible way, it seems like they’ve kept all the hood parts of the Amish culture and have left all the bad parts elsewhere, though by the sounds of it that might be changing since the one guy said the Lancaster people are coming down there and are much more conservative than they are.
I'm from The Netherlands and it's so funny to see all those people on bikes in sort of traditional Dutch costumes. It looks so strange, like the people remind me of old Dutch landscape paintings but then the landscape it self is like modern day tropical neighborhood lol. Would be a funny painting.
One thing got my attention, the way they speak. Very humble, really opposite to typical Americans. Their tone is very polite to whom they speak with.
What beautiful people living a simple life no city congestion or hassles of the city just a good home cooked meal, home made pie what more can you ask for!😀😜 Thanks Peter for taking me with you!☺
I like that compilation of video clips with the yodeling near the end. You know, compiling and disseminating good vibe material like this not only preserves, but perpetuates that positivity. A very good thing you did here, Peter.
THAT WAS AWESOME!! 💟💟💟
I got to stay with Amish people in Pennsylvania when I was like 8 years old for a week. I appreciate that forever the fact that my parents gave me that opportunity. It was beautiful!! 🌿🌿🌿
I went to a Summer Camp run by the Mennonites and there were plenty of Amish there, too..
I really enjoyed myself, I’ll never forget those two weeks in Pennsylvania
My Amish parents spend 4-6 weeks in Pinecraft every winter.
Lots of memories of vacationing there when I was a kid.
Love it! In central Kansas there is a small Amish town called Yoder, and they have a restaurant called Carriage Crossing that is a lot like the one Peter visited. There is a wonderful meat processing plant there, and several small meat and dairy farms you can visit and buy farm fresh goods. Very nice people, and yes, lots of different sects, between Amish and Mennonite. Great video, so interesting and fun!
I love watching these. I recommend reaching out to the Russian Orthodox Old Believer community in Oregon. We’re both interesting and fairly inviting. The food rocks too :)
I want to be Amish, Lovely people
they play hard and are friendly, but theyre also some of the hardest working people youll ever meet
Me too but I can't!
They have their own issues believe me
@@sirfitz8125 them and everyone else on the planet (and off it)
Just stumbled on your channel and LOVE IT! I'm learning so much about Amish and other cultures...THIS is the reason why I'm saving up for an RV and travel the country....Take in the cultures of different towns, see beautiful national parks, and make new friends along the way.😁
