Many people often wish time would stand still, technology would disappear and they would once again get closer to the earth. In the little town of Yoder, that wish can become a reality. Yoder Hardware sits at the center of this town whose population fluctuates at around 200. Like the hardware store’s owner, much of the population in Yoder is Amish. Because of the local presence of both Amish and Old Order Mennonites, the hardware store carries items that cater to this population, who do not use electricity from public utility lines, own a car, television or radio. Like many of his fellow Amish, Delmar Eash, the owner of the hardware store, uses gas and solar power to heat and light up the store.
