An Amish cheese maker is able to fulfill online orders via print-outs delivered to him from a farmer’s market. But he now also poses a risk to his tight-knit Christian community.
Daniel Byler started a recent Friday morning by packaging online orders of Camembert, cheddar and other cheeses scheduled for customer pick-up at the local farmers market the following day. But unlike the market's other vendors, Byler operates his family"micro-dairy" without the internet.
"I have more contact with outside people day in and day out," Byler said."We have actually stopped church services and all social gathering in our community at this point. We are very concerned for what's happening, but we are also concerned [about] what it's doing to our traditions." While also a small town, Cooperstown draws hundreds of thousands of tourists annually as the"home of baseball" and the site of a summer opera festival."We have no idea what our [new] norm is going to be like," said Byler, who's struggled over the past several weeks with everything from sourcing milk jugs to getting pigs to slaughter."So, we're just guessing at what we're doing and hoping for the best.
