Matt Troyer and Gary Mullet (above) of Landrum gave a class in the lifelong learning program at Blue Ridge Community College on Monday, Feb. 20. Troyer and Mullet, who were both raised in Amish homes in Holmes County, Ohio, talked about their personal backgrounds and then showed a 45-minute video about the Amish tradition. The audience (below) had the opportunity to ask questions after the video. Troyer operates a retail store that sells furniture hand-made by the Amish, and Mullet owns a painting business.
