![Exploring The Amana Colonies [Full Time RV Living]](https://i.ytimg.com/vi/zHXcgxsnE6c/mqdefault.jpg "Exploring The Amana Colonies [Full Time RV Living]
This video is about The Amana Colonies located in Amana, IA located in east-central Iowa. It is a German colony consists of 7 separate colonies: Amana (or Main Amana), East Amana, High Amana, Middle Amana, South Amana, West Amana, and Homestead. The colony was established by German Pietists in 1855.
Amana, IA is home to the Amana Corporation which is an American brand of household appliances. It was founded in 1934 by George Foerstner as The Electrical Equipment Co. in Middle Amana, Iowa, to manufacture commercial walk-in coolers. The business was later owned by the Amana Society and became known as Amana Refrigeration, Inc.
Amana appliances are primarily and proudly made in the United States of America. The refrigerators are made in the town of Amana, Iowa. Dishwashers and other appliances are made in factories in Ohio while some ranges are made in Oklahoma.
The Amana Colonies are seven villages on 26,000 acres (11,000 ha) located in Iowa County in east-central Iowa, United States: Amana (or Main Amana), East Amana, High Amana, Middle Amana, South Amana, West Amana, and Homestead. The villages were built and settled by German Pietists, who were persecuted in their homeland by the German state government and the Lutheran Church. Calling themselves the True Inspiration Congregations (German: Wahre Inspirations Gemeinden),[3] they first settled in New York near Buffalo in what is now the town of West Seneca. However, seeking more isolated surroundings, they moved to Iowa (near present-day Iowa City) in 1856. They lived a communal life until 1932.
For eighty years, the Amana Colonies have maintained an almost completely self-sufficient local economy, importing very little from the industrializing American economy. The Amanians were able to achieve this independence and lifestyle by adhering to the specialized crafting and farming occupations that they had brought with them from Europe. Craftsmen passed their skills and techniques on from one generation to the next. They used hand, horse, wind, and water power, and made their own furniture, clothes, and other goods. The community voted to form a for-profit organization during the Great Depression, the Amana Society, which included the Amana Corporation.
Today, the Seven Villages of Amana are a tourist attraction known for its restaurants and craft shops. The colony was listed as a National Historic Landmark in 1965.

Who are we?
We are Brian and Shawnna, a full time RV couple who enjoy full time RV living. We are empty nesters who quit our corporate jobs, sold our home and auctioned off just about everything we own to live a simpler, more purposeful life. As Full Time RVers, our goal is to experience life and make awesome RV lifestyle videos for our community. We decided to retire from life as we knew it so we traded our stuff for experiences. We travel in a 34 foot, 2008 Winnebago Motorhome with a preference for boondocking (dry camping). We vlog, blog and update social media with our RV travel experiences, advice and challenges with a goal of helping other RVers along the way - find beautiful places to stay and save money by seeking out low cost campgrounds and awesome boondocking sites. The full time RV life is a great way to live, but its not without its challenges. We plan to share those with you and offer advice along the way.
