Ah, the Amish kitchen...the heart of the home! Amish kitchens are typically well-lit by natural light, which comes in through windows and skylights.

The walls are often painted a light color, such as white or yellow or pale blue, and the floors are made of wood or linoleum (I've seen a lot of each). Amish kitchens are typically clean and tidy (but I have seen some messy ones too!), and they are often decorated with simple Amish quilts and other handmade items. Sometimes the utensils are the decor, with shiny copper pots and pans hanging from hooks, functional but also beautiful.
Amish kitchens are important spaces for families to gather and spend time together. They are places where families cook meals, eat together, and socialize. Amish kitchens are also places where families learn about their culture and traditions. They are important spaces for Amish families to pass down their values and beliefs to future generations.
Here are some of the key features of an Amish kitchen:
