Traditional Amish Food
Amish food is hearty, filling, nourishing, and simple. Dishes include soft pretzels, Dutch apple desserts, and beef and noodles. Scrapple, Shoofly pie, doughnuts, and chicken corn soup are also popular.
No Retirement Age
There’s no retirement age for the Amish community. Each person can determine if they want to retire and when. Generally, that happens anywhere from 50 to 70 years old, and the ones who do still live within the community and do housework.
