These people form a huge religious following all over the US. They follow very basic living principles.

While in Philadelphia I went to the Amish Market which sells all locally produced food, crafts etc made by the Lancaster County Amish Farmers.
Fascinating group of people. Normal dress is all black clothing, the men wearing hats, women in bonnet type hats. Very very distinctive, and I saw them a lot while travelling around on the Greyhound bus
