In upstate New York we have wonderful regional groups and cultural communities living alongside each other. One such group are the Amish who keep their traditions alive while still living within modern groups.We are used to seeing their traditional horse and buggy along main roads and used for daily transportation. Seeing a horse and buggy alongside a Porsche for visitors to this area can be a shock seeing this for the first time. They do not drive cars and some still even don’t use electricity in their homes. They are skilled artisans making beautiful woodwork and buildings and their produce from their farms and baked goods are bought by regular modern people as norms.Definitely a wonderful thing to see and experience while in rural Upstate New York.
