Their heritage, as Hutterites, originates as an Anabaptist Protestant
sect from Europe's 16th Century Reformation movement. Since immigrating
to North America in 1874, over 300 colonies have been established
in north central United States and southwestern Canada. With each
colony averaging one hundred-fifty persons, their community kitchen
and dining hall serve three daily meals.
Many recipes will be recognized as survivals of traditional
