    Amish Heritage

    Hi, I’m Anna. I grew up Amish in the Lancaster County, Pa. area (the heart of Amish country). I currently live in a small rural town in Missouri and am a homeschool mom to 4 great kids.

    About the Amish

    Here at Amish Heritage, I try to address many of the questions that people have about the Amish. And although I am X-Amish, I always strive to remain unbiased and give you the simple truth about the Amish people.
