With the fourth-largest Amish population in the United States, Wisconsin Amish country is home to Kingston and Dalton settlements in Green Lake County.
Wisconsin Amish Country: Dalton Kingston Amish Communities
The customs of each community differ from one church district to the next, but most resist using modern conveniences and technologies such as electricity, cell phones, driving modern automobiles, and using the latest in farming equipment.
While the communities remain close-knit and relatively private, some are open to sharing their fantastic baked goods and other wooden works built through their skilled craftsmanship at stores around the state. A few even offer self-guided or narrated driving tours so visitors can experience an up-close look at the farms, stores, and homes that make up these Amish communities.

What do Amish do to make a living?
A popular assumption is that all Amish are farmers, selling their produce at a roadside stand or in a local market. While farming is still a primary way of life for the Amish, the opportunities for Amish-run businesses have expanded.
Many Amish use their skills as builders, roofers, cabinetmakers, furniture makers, hardware suppliers, equipment converters, crafters, bakers, and more.
The Amish are honest and ethical, even in the smallest business transactions.
They genuinely bring their values into their work, and it shows. As a result, customers trust them, and they can build lasting relationships that drive a successful business quickly. Amish businesses view money as a tool, which puts less emphasis on financial success.
