Every community of Amish or Mennonites is different. I've had friends who have been with both, and I understand that a Bishop will decide to start a group, and he'll set the parameters for the group and advertise in their papers for people to settle an area with him, or the group with vote on parameters. Some use strictly horses, some use tractors with steel wheels on the farm and horses to travel, some use rubber tired tractors with a trailer for both farm and transportation. Some use cars.
I guess these are Amish farmers then. I thought they didn't use engines but all these folks say they do... ? Either way, a great part of Americana we were grateful to see...
So cool! All those Belgians working abreast are just beautiful.

These are Amish. Old Order Mennonites use horses for transportation but use tractors with steel wheel for farming
