The Amish and Mennonites are both Anabaptists. Anabaptists are an off shoot of Christianity that occurred about the same time as the reformation lead by Martin Luther. The three main sects left are Amish, Mennonite and Hutterite. The major point that differentiated them from Lutherans and other more mainline protestants is the belief that a person need to be of the age where they can make a conscious decision about baptism and make confession of their sins. As far as practice they're all over the map from Amish and Old Order Mennonites to Hutterites who don't eschew the technology but live in communal arrangements to modern and liberal churches and Mennonite communities that if you were to drive through or stop and visit you wouldn't notice anything different or unusual. My Mother-In-Law was raised Mennonite and was from a group that immigrated to the US from Russia feeling the need to leave Russia shortly after Catherine the Great Died as it appeared the new regime wouldn't be content to leave the agreements they had with her stand or allow them practice their religion and farm as they saw fit. As far as farm technology and implements my Wife's Grandfather was the John Deere Dealer in Mountain Lake Minnesota. When the Wife's Uncle passed on the early 2000's we went to the funeral, the Mennonite Church he was a member of was probably a little more liberal the the Lutheran Church we belong to as the Mennonite Pastor was a she. There seems to be some blending of some of the Anabaptists as the last time we were in Mountain Lake and her uncle was still alive he took us out to see a new turkey farm that had been built by Haydyte Mennonites, he had know idea about the tenants of their practices other than they lived communally and all dressed alike in clothing similar to Amish or old order Mennonites.
