In this episode we discuss the highlights of season 7, share some stats and also stories and corrections from our listeners. Highlights include the story of how the More with Less cookbook got into trouble with a chain of restaurants, the rise of ebikes in Mount Hope, OH, and more.
Additionally, here are some of the resources shared by Steve Nolt about the Old Order River Brethren including:
- A number of very informative books in the MHL, about Amish and other Plain groups, were written by an Old Order River Brethren author, Steve Scott.
- The occasional medical column in Pathway’s Family Life magazine that the MHL gets sometimes has a health Q&A with Dr. Michael Sauder, who is Old Order River Brethren.
- Another OORB of note is poet G. C. Waldrep, about to retire from Bucknell University. He is a convert to the OORB. The OORB drive cars, have never limited higher education, and haven’t spoken PA Dutch for many generations, so they are, in some ways, an attractive option for converts who have higher ed and only speak English. Interestingly, Waldrep provided a photo of Plain hat rather that a head short for his Poetry Foundation bio. They don’t prohibit photos, but discourage them.
