Does anyone have any information if there are any Amish in Fairfax County?

No Lebanon Levi, go back to PA. No horse and buggies here.

I was at Willards BBQ in Chantilly last week and there were some Amish there. They were speaking the PA Dutch language and wearing overalls and straw hats. It was pretty weird. No horse and buggy in the parking lot, so I assume they had been driven in from somewhere. First and only time in 40 years I've seen Amish in Fairfax County.

Not sure about Amish, but there is a Quaker Meeting house near Fort Belvoir and a Mennonite Church in Fairfax.

We've got Mennonite further west, out towards Catharpin. There's a 'beware of buggies' sign although I've never seen buggies. I hear there's a bunch more down towards Warrenton.

The only time I typically see Amish in Fairfax is whene there's an arts and crafts show going on at the Dulles Expo Center. I'll see them walking all over, expecially to Walmart. Willards is right by the expo center.
