My good friend Robert was harvesting soybeans just north of Arthur Illinois and hired an Amish girl to help him. She drives the combine and tractor like a pro!

I've spent many hours with the same view of watching a header, but when watching this on my iPad it made me sick...
-
Hutterite.? ?

This sucked. All about watching a combine. Where was the Amish babe? It looked like a girl in the tractor following the combine. Then when they unload the grain cart, a big fat man jumps out of the tractor.

my kind of lady
-
the tractor has the wrong radiator screens, interesting.
-
those are Mennonites they are not Amish but there are some Amish that do farm with tractors trust me I know
-
her employer owns the equipment. she may have had to ask the bishop if it was OK to take the job but it's really no different that any other non Amish job.

The way I see it is, if God had a thing about technology, He would have given us a brain incapable of inventing things. That Amish girl is on the best of terms with John Deere, and why not? The Amish are a practical and intelligent people.

Ernest as always thanks for sharing. People viewing this please note that this is taken near Arthur, Illinois. Please note that the Amish are located in many states in the USA and all districts have different rules related to "modernity". I suggest that for more correct information on the Amish you consult works by one or more of the following authors: Donald B. Kraybill, Steven M. Nolt, John D. Roth, Richard Dawley and for a historical perspective John A. Hostetler.

I think one of the groups can operate equipment like that, they just can't own it.

What a bunch of asshats in this comment section saying the girl isn't Amish. Maybe don't believe everything you see on TV and have a little faith in the guy making the video??

Mennonite dipshit

The Amish also have something called Rumspringa which is where the younger ones between 14 and 17 can go see what the rest of the world is like. Many return to the Amish way of life

At least bring her down from the tractor/combine/etc and introduce her to us.
I have a lot of respect for the hard working girls that can get it done. -
She might be a Mennonite because they drive cars also
-
Sorry but I thought the Amish could not operate mechanized equipment. Guess no one told her........
-
Very interesting and unusual. I would like to see more videos of her and maybe get some back story.
