Amish Stories blogspot has recipes, food stands, handcrafted art like painted horseshoes, and other Amish cultural stuff. Its posted by a non Amish guy (if youve no idea what Amish are, they are anti technology descedants of the Swiss and German immigrants of the 1690s to the Pennsylvania and Ohio area, they have a German accent, build everything by hand using no electrical tools, and they also wont join the military)
But the horse carriages and buggies are unique in America for all I know, as the Amish wont own, drive, or ride in cars. Maybe they have a historic date that they arent allowed to pass in material technology, because they are very aware of the rest of the worlds technology, but they religiously adhere to the farming culture of their ancestors. Their carpentry is said to be superb.
