Entering America's Most Conservative Amish Town

While many of you guys may disagree with the Swartzentruber Amish way of life, I actually found it to be quite refreshing. Their commitment to sustainable living and self-sufficiency is something that I’ve rarely seen outside of indigenous tribes in Africa. I also admire the way that the Swartzentrubers prioritize family, faith, and hard work, giving a strong sense of purpose and fulfillment. Lastly, while WE THINK their lives are extreme, they have no idea that other ways of life exist. So who are we to judge? Would love to hear your thoughts down below if you agree or disagree with the Swartzentruber Amish way of life. Thanks for watching!

Her mom is amazing for many reasons, she accepts her back to visit, she raise all these children alone ? Like seriously how? Can you interview her? Single mom here and I can barely raise one child on my own. This made me cry

I hope she knows how lucky she is that her family still talks to her. You can tell her mother is a good person because she's so sweet and down to earth

I drive for the Amish here in S.W. Michigan. Some of the greatest people I have EVER known. My wife of almost 26 years just passed away 6/3/24 and the love and support I have received from our Amish friends was amazing. I couldn't ask for better people to be friends with.

this was beautiful. This captures the meaning of "America, the land of the free" because you can live as you want.

I might have shed a few tears on the interaction with her mom. Having grown up Amish n after leaving am shunned as well and to see her mom accepting her as she is is just beautiful!

She is not just beautiful, her vibe, spirit, energy and her strength. This is a great video swear

this is why this guy has 4 million subscribers.. incredible content

Your Mom is a good woman for wanting to still be your friend! I have seen and read that when an Amish person is shunned it’s game over, don’t let the door hit you in the ass. I hear the gratitude you have for your special relationship with your mother. ❤

I live very close to this area. I am so happy that you came here. I have always grown up seeing the Amish and going to their markets and buying their products. It’s a wonderful and peaceful way of life. Thank you for sharing this ❤

Growing up in nearby Maryland, we see and encounter the Amish all the time and as long as I’ve known them, they are the warmest, nicest and friendliest people I know. They’re incredibly down to earth and very humble people and Lizzie is the perfect example of this. If you ever get a chance to get to Lancaster or any other Amish areas, remain humble and open and you will have an incredible experience.

Lizzie reflecting out her childhood window was such a beautiful moment.

So great to see a Schwarzentrupper house inside. Thank you.

As a muslim. I have great respect for this community👏🏻 lizzy’s mom is btw such an amazing powerful woman. Loved both storys about lizzy and her mom. Wish them al the best.

This is the Drew Binsky style I fell in love with some years ago! This is raw, talented journalism, amazing editing and storytelling, and most of all, taking risks in conflict areas to tell a powerful story. Keep up the amazing work, Drew! 👏👏👏

This is some of the best editing and cinematography you’ve done in a while. The moment in her bedroom with the transitions to b-roll was perfect!

OMG, This is a big eye opener for me.

Lizzie is beautiful and a beautiful soul. She seems like such a graceful person. This is a really really good video. Top tier content!

Lizzy is the best! Thank you both for sharing this with us.❤

I’m impressed with your coverage of this particular Amish family. You were very positive and respectful about your subjects. I’m very glad that faces were blurred to protect the family. Thank you for this video. ❤
