Plain Roots: Community, Story, and Support for Higher Education

Did you grow up in a Plain community and dream of attending college? Do you still have this dream?

Are you a formerly Amish college student who needs support to continue this difficult journey?

Have you earned a college education and enjoy the idea of exchanging stories with others who were raised Amish or Plain?

If you can answer yes to any of these questions, know someone who could, or are simply curious about Amish in education, you are invited to Plain Roots: Community, Story, and Support for Higher Education, a conference at The Essenhaus and Conference Center in Middlebury, Indiana on June 26 and 27.

Good stories, good company, and good food will be in abundance. Two delicious Amish-style meals will be provided: Friday evening and Saturday lunch. To learn more, see the schedule, and register, visit our Events page. If you have any questions, email us at amishscholarship@gmail.com.

Help us spread the word by sharing widely in your social circles. You can also download, print, and put up our poster in your community by clicking here.

We’re excited about this conference and hope to see you there in June!
