This page is

The Amish are known for
their simple agricultural life.
There are many types of Amish people, some use more technology than
others.
Young people are permitted to experiment somewhat with the "English"
ways.
Most stay with their families and continue that way of life.
Young Amish take on lots of responsibility at an early age.
Boys as young as sixteen marry and manage whole farms.
More and more
Amish interact with the "English", trading goods and services.
Many are very wealthy because of the immense value of their land, which they rarely sell.
These farms are in Central Pennsylvania, about 20 miles East of State College.
If you sit quietly, you can hear the clip-clop of Amish buggies as
they go about their business.
