Learn Amish

The Learning Hub

Free lessons from John and Delila Glick are in production. This page will be the home for video, guides, printables, and audio on farming, building, cooking, preserving, and living a simpler life.

Content Is Being Prepared

John and Delila are recording lessons, writing guides, and putting together printable resources on the topics they have lived their whole lives. Check back soon, or get in touch and we can let you know when things go live.

What's Coming

Topics We Will Cover

All content will be free. It will be taught by John and Delila Glick, who have practiced every one of these skills for most of their lives.

Farming & Soil

Reading soil health, composting, bed preparation, planting by season, and managing a small productive garden without heavy inputs.

Food Preservation

Water-bath canning, pressure canning, and dehydrating — with a strong emphasis on doing it safely.

Homemaking

Scratch cooking, pantry management, weekly rhythm and routine, and simple hospitality from a household that has practiced these for decades.

Building & Construction

Hand tools, timber joinery, reading basic plans, and how Amish builders approach small structures built to last.

Sewing & Textiles

Garment construction, pattern cutting, hand stitching, mending, and quilting — taught by someone who has sewn her whole life.

Faith & Simple Living

Reflections on Adventist principles, the Sabbath, and how a faith-rooted life shapes the way we work, eat, and rest.

Want to Learn in Person?

These resources will be a way to start learning from home. But nothing replaces a few days on the farm with your hands in the actual work. If you want that, browse our programs.
