The monks at the Abbey of the Genesee in the American state of New York do not watch television or listen to the radio.
However, they engage in one activity that is very modern: they sell things over the Internet.
The monks at the monastery have been baking breads and cakes for 50 years.
Now, instead of buying their goods at local supermarkets, customers can place orders over the Internet.
The monks hope to sell thousands of cakes and loaves of bread each week.
