In 1978, twenty years before terms like “sustainability” and “buy local” became commonplace, Jim LaPrete
set out to find a way in which he could support his family without compromising his passions for being
outdoors and experimenting in the kitchen. Today, his daughter Kim—along with her husband, her brother, and
soon her own children—bakes with her father’s passion, using his original recipes, which were considered
old-fashioned when he introduced them. Baking nightly and with only a forty-five minute drive into New York City,
we take pleasure in providing the freshest bread and baked goods possible to our customers. We at Baker’s Bounty
are very proud to be one of the original Greenmarket vendors, and we consider ourselves privileged to be part of
such an essential institution.
