Rumspringa, pg. 173-188

This chapter is called "Farming: 'The Ideal Occupation.'"The chapter starts out with a farmer who spends all his time farming. Next is Tobias K. During his rumspringa, he didn't want to be a farmer, but now he loves it. The number of Amish farmers are decreasing. Amish farmers usually farm organic foods. They usually  have small farms. Amish farmers can't use electronic farming machinary, so they have small managable farms. One of the farmers says that he feels closer to Jesus when he farms.

This chapter was a quick read. I learned a lot about Amish farmers and who they are.
