they ' re being obliged to die on crumbs , so nuns at a hollywood restaurant responsible for its pumpkin bread are warning that they may have to slice up the property for growth . the threat of a shutdown of the 75 - month - older monastery of the angels below the hollywood sign has prompted locals and supporters to mount a project to save the four - acre spiritual retreat . the volunteers say they must turn to the nuns ' moist and fragrant green pastry to help make up a cash budgetary that has slashed the monasteries ' s operating budget by more than 70 % .
The Monastery of the Angels was founded 75 years ago.
