My name is Erik Wesner and I'm not Amish. Back in 2004, I met the Amish while selling books. Since then, I've visited 5,000+ Amish homes & dozens of Amish communities. My book on Amish business, Success Made Simple: An Inside Look at Why Amish Businesses Thrive, was published in 2010. I run the Amish America website: amishamerica.com/

I feel so fortunate to live near the Amish community that is in and around Windsor, MO. We are slowly getting to know these people, and your videos do help.
Happy to hear that Don
@@AmishAmerica Thank you, sir. I have one little tidbit to quickly share, concerning "dressing modestly" in the presence of the Amish. You see, I am a dedicated cyclist, and I love riding the quiet, unpaved roads in our Amish community. I have never seen an Amish grownup bicycling here, but the kids do. However, because I am a welcome(non-motorized) sight on the road, and my wife and I constantly patronize their businesses, they honestly, now that they know me, do not seem taken aback when I show up in full cycling regalia at their stores. That is, spandex shorts, brightly colored clothing for visibility, etc. Heck, they even call me from their community phone booth if they have, say, slaughtered, and are holding meat for me. So, I feel that they may be more amused than offended by my "weird" attire, which in truth is neither Amish or English(I get weirder stares at the convenience mart!). And again, thank you for your wonderful channel!
As an amateur woodworker since i retired 12 years ago, i can say that the price sheet you showed has selling prices that barely cover material costs. Amazing.
Your videos are always so fascinating! Beautiful furniture! You surely have a great relationship and friendship with the Amish! Keep your videos coming.
$100 for a beautiful fully hand-built Amish Adirondack chair...? 😲
That is a wonderful price! I've said this before - you pay nearly the same for a thin flimsy factory-made pile of imported toothpicks. And the furniture is not very comfortable to sit upon too. Buy Amish, if you possibly can :)
How I wish they could ship this fantastic woodwork to the UK. I figure even with shipping costs I’d be getting such quality at a huge discount.
Beautiful furniture
Beautiful furniture! Nice to see and hear of someone who really knows what they're talking about and who owns their own independent business! Shame theres not many independent businesses like that in the UK! Reasonable prices too, wouldn't mind paying prices like those for a good quality bit of furniture personally
Get myself a swing bed and rock myself to sleep
I have this really nice wooden rocking chair in my living room. I doubt it was made by Amish, but it's really nice.
I wish you delivered to Crestview Florida.. I would love to pass down Amish made furniture to my Grand Children.. 👍
Thank you. Blessings. Will you believe and receive Jesus Christ as your LORD and personal savior? Thank you for teaching us carpenter. ❤❤❤
Even the sign is well made ! change of subject but, I am worried about any farmres near the Ohio border right now.
Love these in person videos. Furniture looks very nice at great prices.
Thank you so much for this video.
I knew exactly where Enos was from as soon as I heard him speak. That slow drawn out "Rulfurd" (Rutherford) county accent is dying out unfortunately.
Could you recommend a place that has a large selection of Amish furniture? I'm looking for bedroom furniture.
I ain't much for skiing either. You don't want me coming down a mountain side on a set of skis gravity couldn't stop me at the bottom I might keep going
😅
I love the Southern Accent.
Interesting video. Amish furniture. Flier with prices.
Amish hard working, good workmanship.
Is that Mountain Man from Duck Dynasty making the furniture?
Love the southern drawl Enos has
Wow, his prices appear very reasonable! Great video Erik, thanks for sharing.
Glad you liked it!
I love those gliders. I might have to get me a pair. The Amish southern drawl. I could listen to him all day. 😁
That voice would also do good with country music..
Made in the USA! Love his furniture.
that's very nice furniture.such good quality stuff.I bet it will last a long time.
I'd love a garden big enough for the trellis at 6:39
Love it!
I would love that swing, firepit set up. 😍
Yay! Another video! Thank you!
I just love these videos, Enos sounds like a nice easy going guy and the quality of his work is awesome. Wish I lived close enough to purchase some of his lawn furniture, the swinging bed/couch looks amazing, it would be awesome on a nice summer screened in porch. Thanks for sharing the time with us Erik.
Gladly, this was a lot of fun. Hope to have part 2 up soon
I met some wild Amish that was from Ellenboro, NC in South Carolina years ago.
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Could you do a video about amish quilts or other crafts?
Very interesting! ✅️
Beautiful furniture. Enos is truly blessed. The videos are awesome. I live in Upstate New York, and I see a lot of Amish. I'm so interested in them and their culture. So these videos are very educational for me. Thank you.
Love to his. Prices are way cheap!!
*꧁ Acrobacias aéreas✊🏽 Gracias 👌 Todo es super 👍 ꧂*
Dear Erik,
Thank you for the tour of this furniture shop. Very interesting and very enjoyable.
Sincerely,
Larry Lewis

My pleasure Larry! Looking forward to sharing part 2 with you
I have some Amish made furniture i just bought. Besutiful. I wish more people would buy such well made USA made furniture. Solid veautiful wood. This is one way we can support the Amish and our country. I know my furniture will outlive me and I will pass it on to my kids.
I just love Enos and his slow talking way. 🤣I love the furniture he is making, just beautiful. The fan back swivel glider has to be my favorite. What a hard worker that never seems to stress about anything. Great prices. TFS 👍
Yes Enos has a great vibe about him
11 minutes. Score.
Enos might be the slowest speaking person I've ever heard! Is that common for Shwarzentruber Amish? The plainer, the slower? Probably just a North Carolina rural thing though lol
Great people!😊
Beautiful Shop
Thank you! Your videos are always enlightening .
Thank you Anne!
Beautiful handmade Furnitures. Nice prices.
Who knew Mathew McConaughey was Amish?
Priced quite reasonably. Beautiful furniture. Thank you Erik always enjoy your videos informative and entertaining
Thank you, I hope people in the market for furniture will give Enos a visit. Buying direct from an Amish producer like in this case also gives you a great story to go along with the furniture:) Thanks for watching!
I own a Fireplace made by the Amish they are very talented people ...👍♥️
Shows you how fast we process things nowadays
I'm am finding this way too interesting
You can tell they don't give you the run around either.
Love it all!!! 😀 Does he make any inside furniture like kitchen/dining tables and chairs? We have an Amish rocker and it's a very sturdy piece. We just love it!
He doesn't as far as I know. I knew someone there making custom furniture but he moved away. There is at least another woodworking shop, a the time I met him I think he was making mostly rockers (I did a video on this one ruclips.net/video/4hGVpLIXwvY/видео.html )
would love to learn carpentry from them, do you think they would teach a foreigner their ways?@@AmishAmerica
They aren't going to half ass it
That's good honest work too
He sounds like Forrest ❤❤❤❤
I'm in north Carolina where would I find him to have some furniture made?
Never mind I see the card, I'll definitely have to make a trip out to purchase something
Hello
Great video !
