On August 11th we will be hosting our fifth annual pie bake off. Entries will be judged by several categories. Whether you’re an experienced pie maker or need to look through recipe books for inspiration and direction, we encourage everyone to participate and make use of local and fresh ingredients.
Our pie competition will also raise funds for New West Pride! All donations raised by selling slices of pie will go towards this wonderful community group.

Prizes will be awarded in five categories, and entrants can win in more than one category.

Prizes
Each winner will receive $20 in market money and a fancy ribbon!
