Monk Bread available onlinePosted Jul 19th 2006 6:05PM by Nick Vagnoni Some of you may recall a post last fall about monks from an Oregon monastery selling their homemade fudge online. Well, it appears that the Cistercian monks at The Abbey of the Genesee in Piffard, NY, are following suit and will soon make their line of breads available via the internet. The website for the Trappist order's bakery says that sales should begin sometime next month. Their bread baking began in the 1950s, according to a recent Business First article. At present, 14 monks work several days a week to produce white, whole wheat, raisin, sunflower bran and Genesee rye breads in the Abbey's bakery. They apparently turn out some sweets, too. |
