Information & history on rear of plaque:
AMS06 Amish Roadside Stand   The Amish have large gardens from which they feed their family.   Many families will plant extra to sell at markets or roadside stands.   The Amish are not able to own a market,  but will rent a stand for themselves.   An array of frsh fruits and vegetables are available along with many hand-crafted items.

AMS07 Corn Crib   These structures are used for storing ears of corn on Amish farmland.

AMS10 Amish School   Amish schools have been successful in preparing youth for productive lives within the Amish society for many years.   Today Amish children attend over 120 one-room elementary schools in the Lancaster,  Pennsylvania settlement.   With about 30 pupils,  schools are often within walking distance from the child's home.   The school board is made up of parents supervising school policies and hiring teachers.   Typically single Amish women who are schoolhouse graduates are chosen as teachers for their academic ability,  commitment to religious values and Amish views.   The school curriculum emphasizes basic skills and meets state standards concerning the length of school days and how many are attended.
