Here are Amish shoppers at the bulk foods store in Mt. Hope, Ohio. The lad is dressed like his father would be, and he is wearing his spring/summer hat. Notice that the dresses of the women are pleated differently. That can mean that they are from different congregations. It is the bishop in each congregation who will decide about the various details of acceptable dress.Labels: Amish, Amish Country, Amish Culture, Amish Photographs, Amish-Country Mysteries, Holmes County, P.
