-Hey, DW!

-Hey...

0:00:590:01:03

Every time we take a field trip,

0:01:130:01:15

Buster brings something home.

0:01:150:01:18

Like when he took a dinosaur fossil from Rainbow Rock State Park...

0:01:180:01:23

then he accidentally took a detective's badge

0:01:230:01:27

out of the police station...

0:01:270:01:30

and, from the fudge factory, he brought home a stomach ache!

0:01:300:01:34

I wonder what Buster will bring home today!

0:01:340:01:38

NEIGH!

0:01:410:01:44

Now, that's a machine!

0:01:460:01:49

Bet you can't catch us!

0:01:580:02:01

Oh, yeah?

0:02:010:02:04

Say goodbye to the 21st century, class.

0:02:110:02:15

This is Amish country.

0:02:150:02:18

-A country called Amish?

-Buster, were you paying attention yesterday?

0:02:180:02:23

-That's a trick question!

-Oh!

0:02:230:02:26

The Amish came to America from northern Europe

0:02:260:02:30

to live according to their beliefs.

0:02:300:02:32

-What kind of beliefs?

-What do you see out the window?

0:02:320:02:37

They're not using that big machine.

0:02:370:02:40

Correct. The Amish don't rely on the modern conveniences we do.

0:02:400:02:45

-Do you know why?

-No money?

0:02:450:02:48

They choose not to use them.

0:02:480:02:51

They believe their lives should be as simple as possible.

0:02:510:02:55

The don't use cars, phones or even electricity.

0:02:550:02:59

-No TV!

-Or any other technology that makes modern life possible!

0:02:590:03:05

Yeah! Or TV!

0:03:050:03:07

Hey, look! A buggy!

0:03:070:03:10

Hello, children. Welcome to the Latt farm.

0:03:140:03:18

We Amish believe our community should keep to our own ways,

0:03:180:03:24

separate from the outside world.

0:03:240:03:26

In the 200 years since we came here, the outside world has changed,

0:03:260:03:31

but our farm hasn't changed much. Come inside and I'll show you.

0:03:310:03:36

-Hi. I'm Buster.

-Hello. My name is Daniel.

0:03:360:03:40

-Cool hat!

-Thanks.

0:03:400:03:42

-We make a lot of our own furniture.

-Who builds your pianos?

0:03:420:03:47

We don't believe in playing musical instruments.

0:03:470:03:51

We make quilts and clothes.

0:03:510:03:54

-I'm not allowed to wear these.

-No buttons?

0:03:540:03:58

Too fancy! No zippers, either!

0:03:580:04:01

As Mr Ratburn told you, we don't use electricity.

0:04:010:04:05

We use gas or wood for cooking.

0:04:050:04:08

-What's this?

-A butter churn. We even make our own butter.

0:04:080:04:13

Can I try it?

0:04:130:04:16

-Look at me! I'm making butter!

-OK, Buster, that's enough!

0:04:160:04:21

You want to try something really yummy?

0:04:220:04:27

Apple butter!

0:04:270:04:29

-Mmm!

-A-hem!

0:04:290:04:31

What's going on?

0:04:330:04:36

Our friends and neighbours are helping us build a new barn.

0:04:360:04:40

It's called a barn-raising.

0:04:400:04:42

A barn-raising? Can we help?

0:04:420:04:45

We are a little ahead of schedule.

0:04:450:04:48

We're doing a barn-raising!

0:04:480:04:51

It would have been more efficient with a power saw!

0:05:070:05:11

Mr Ratburn, can we come back tomorrow to put the roof on?

0:05:110:05:15

No. Sorry, Buster.

0:05:150:05:17

Thanks for helping us.

0:05:170:05:19

I should thank you! I never made anything with my own hands before!

0:05:190:05:25

You guys know how to live!

0:05:250:05:27

You don't have to be Amish to live this way! Try it at home.

0:05:270:05:32

-You think so?

-Sure!

0:05:320:05:35

-This will help you get started!

-Awesome! Thanks, Daniel!

0:05:350:05:39

Pretty cool, Buster!

0:05:390:05:42

It's way more than cool, Arthur!

0:05:420:05:44

-It's my inspiration.

-For what?

0:05:440:05:48

To live the Amish way!

0:05:480:05:50

I'm going to live simply and make everything with my own hands.

0:05:500:05:55

-Who's with me?

-BEEPING

0:05:550:05:58

They put us to work, Daddy! I chipped a nail on a stupid saw!

0:05:580:06:03

Buster, it's virtually impossible to do without technology!

0:06:030:06:08

Think of the advanced machinery we use every day.

0:06:080:06:11

He's right! Remember - you couldn't last a week without TV!

0:06:110:06:16

I'm through with modern junk!

0:06:160:06:18

Take my jacket - it has buttons.

0:06:180:06:22

Buster, I don't understand! Why can't you go in the car?

0:06:240:06:28

It's not the Amish way, Mom!

0:06:280:06:31

Well, OK... Would you like anything special for dinner?

0:06:310:06:35

A stew of corn meal ground by hand

0:06:350:06:39

and fresh kale and sweet potatoes slow-cooked over a wood stove.

0:06:390:06:44

Next time, we have to make our own pizza.

0:06:480:06:51

-We can make our own dough.

-That might be difficult -

0:06:510:06:55

-I have to work! But a candlelight dinner was a nice idea!

-Mom!

0:06:550:07:01

-We can't use electricity!

-Of course we can, dear!

0:07:010:07:05

-That's not the Amish way!

-PHONE RINGS

0:07:050:07:10

-Don't answer that! We can't use phones!

-I'm not Amish

0:07:100:07:15

-and neither are you!

-But we should be. They know how to live.

0:07:150:07:19

-Maybe, but I'm not living that way!

-Well, I am!

0:07:190:07:24

Tell you what - you can be Amish in your room!

0:07:240:07:29

-You mean I have to go it alone?

-I'm afraid so.

0:07:290:07:34

But Amish families stick together!

0:07:340:07:37

I found this self-powered flashlight.

0:07:410:07:45

Don't ruin your eyes.

0:07:450:07:47

Just crank this handle to charge it.

0:07:470:07:50

-Whoo! It's cold in here!

-I had to turn off the heat!

0:07:500:07:54

-It's electric!

-I don't think the Amish sleep in freezing rooms!

0:07:540:07:59

-They probably have wood stoves that heat the house.

-But we don't!

0:07:590:08:05

Sweetie, do you need to be completely Amish?

0:08:050:08:08

-Couldn't you just be a little Amish?

-No way!

0:08:080:08:13

Is Bionic Bunny a little bionic?

0:08:130:08:16

Oh... Sleep tight, dear.

0:08:160:08:19

Buster, you'll be late for school!

0:08:210:08:24

I can't find a coat without buttons or zippers!

0:08:240:08:28

Mr Ratburn, can we do a barn-raising in Elwood City?

0:08:300:08:34

I'm pleased you got so much out of yesterday's trip,

0:08:340:08:39

but I don't think we need a barn.

0:08:390:08:42

Given the lack of farmland, I doubt you'll find anyone who needs one.

0:08:420:08:48

-Buster, wanna play tag?

-No thanks. I'm sewing a quilt.

0:08:530:08:57

Ow!

0:08:570:09:00

Guten Tag, my Amish lad! Hungry?

0:09:010:09:04

I bet that tuna surprise was made in an electric oven.

0:09:040:09:09

Is it Amish enough for you?

0:09:090:09:11

I'll just have an apple.

0:09:130:09:16

Well, I'll be...!

0:09:160:09:18

Never thought I'd live to see Buster Baxter turn down food!

0:09:180:09:23

This homework is hard on the arms.

0:09:290:09:33

Look what I found at the farmers' market! They look delicious!

0:09:330:09:38

What's that smell?

0:09:390:09:41

I tried to make butter - I think I made mayonnaise instead!

0:09:410:09:45

-That's it! You're not making butter in your room!

-But...

0:09:450:09:49

No buts! And you're sleeping with the heat on tonight!

0:09:490:09:54

A-choo!

0:10:000:10:02

Oh, no!

0:10:020:10:04

Bet you can't catch us!

0:10:040:10:06

-Go get them, boy!

-HEE-HAW!

0:10:100:10:13

Come back! Come back!

0:10:130:10:17

Your report on your favourite educational programme is due Monday.

0:10:180:10:24

Mr Ratburn, watching TV is against my beliefs.

0:10:240:10:29

Well, write a report on your favourite educational book.

0:10:290:10:33

-No picture books!

-Aw!

0:10:330:10:36

Eat up, Buster! I made it myself -

0:10:410:10:44

for the boy who used to be my best customer!

0:10:440:10:48

Buster, I've spent a lot of time with the Amish,

0:10:480:10:51

and whatever it is you're doing, it isn't Amish.

0:10:510:10:55

-It isn't?

-Certainly not.

0:10:550:10:58

They don't own cars, but they ride in them and eat whatever they want!

0:10:580:11:03

Do you think it's Amish to be cold, hungry and miserable?

0:11:030:11:08

No. Actually, everyone at Latt Farm seemed happy.

0:11:080:11:12

-Why do you think that was?

-I don't know...

0:11:120:11:16

Cos everyone worked together, like at the barn-raising...

0:11:160:11:20

But here you are all by yourself.

0:11:200:11:23

It's no use cooking dinner for six if you end up eating alone.

0:11:230:11:28

Hi, Arthur. It's me - Buster.

0:11:430:11:46

Yes, I'm using the phone again.

0:11:460:11:49

No, I'm not Amish any more,

0:11:490:11:51

but there's one Amish thing I'd like us all to do together.

0:11:510:11:56

Hey, Pal! Come here, boy!

0:12:020:12:05

Mmm! This is the best pizza I've ever tasted!

0:12:080:12:13

Maybe because I made the dough myself from scratch!

0:12:130:12:17

What's wrong? I thought you liked it!

0:12:170:12:21

I do! That's why I'm going to take it home and save it.

0:12:210:12:25

The first pizza crust made from Baxter hands!
