Our Journey
From Amish Roots
to Adventist Faith
We were raised Swartzentruber Amish—no electricity, no shortcuts, just the rhythm of seasons and the weight of honest work. When we came to Adventism, we didn’t leave those values behind. We brought them with us.
Amish Homesteading exists to share what we know. These skills are worth having, and this way of life is worth living. We started offering programs so others could learn them the same way we did: by doing.
