Via Amy Welborn -- Amish and Mennonites move to Western NY because of cheap land.
$270 / acre !!!! That is so unbelievable. Farming mgiht almost be affordable at that price. Last I checked, the ""farming value" of midwest acreage was about $1,800-$2,000. Sadly, this is not what you can actually buy farmland for in this area.
Good thing food comes from trucks and from grocery stores, right?
