Amish Transportation

The Amish have sawmills and buggy and wagon makers in their community. The roads have a lane designated just for those whose form of transportation is by buggy. The women wear black, dark blue, green or brown dress with black aprons for everyday and white for Sunday. Teenage girls wear black caps until they marry. Men wear no collars, barn door britches, felt hats for winter and straw for summer (handmade). Buttons are used on men's shirts, trousers and underwear, but only hook and eyes on coats and vests.
