That is correct! The Amish can't use an electric heater in their homes, as there is no electric connection to the normal power grid. I once went to a friends farm for a sausage making day. There were two Amish men there to do the hog killings, and make the sausage. they hauled in a large meat grinder powered by a single cylinder gasoline, or maybe diesel powered engine, and they used that to grind up the meat.

The year was about 1967 and my father found a good used Ford 601 tractor to use on the farm instead of "Bob", our old mule.
