Not that Penelope Pies means to be a non-profit, it’s just that Penelope hasn’t figured out how to make any money yet. Her lack of income probably has something to do with not actually selling anything , but until she figures out how to do that, or runs into an old schoolmate who has a company like Ben & Jerry’s and is looking for something new to invest in, (like David Barash’s old school friend who started B&J’s, and who did invest), she was so impressed with David’s Vermont Mystic Pie Company and all their delicious fruit and savory pies, she wanted everyone to know about it.Not only does VMPC make fabulous pies, it does a ton of terrific work with progressive food businesses all over Vermont. It also has a pastry chef from King Arthur’s Flour (one of Penelope’s favorite resources) and has already set aside ten percent of the company for eventual ownership by a nonprofit organization.So if you like great pie with a side order of good karma, visit The Vermont Mystic Pie Company. The staff’s favorite recipes, like Laura’s Pear Cranberry Yogurt Pie, are posted there, too.
