Farmers' Market last week near my home. |
The women wore head coverings and long dresses. They were conservative Mennonites. Simplicity is a hallmark of their religion.
Their plain attire contributed to their their popularity. Also helping them was authenticity. Customers sensed that these women weren’t wearing costumes to earn a buck. They wear those outfits every day.
The popular culture ignores people of humility and simplicity. But they’re respected by everyday people.
