2024 Pie for Pride!

July 26, 2023 By Lily Nichol

Join New West Farmers Market on August 15th at 5:30pm for Pie for Pride!

This beloved community pie baking competition is back with a panel of local (and international) judges who will determine New West’s Best Pie of 2024.

This year’s lineup includes:

  • Philip Fitzpatrick – International Icon and Honorary New Bestie, once lost (The Price is Right), now found (in New West) #PhilipInNewWest and lover of a Louisville Derby Pie,
  • Mayor Patrick Johnstone – Lover of New West and community events that require him to eat pie,
  •  Mike Balser – Acclaimed Winner of the Best Pie in 2023’s Pie for Pride with his infamous Whoo-Berry Pie,
  • Jon Jennings – NWFM Board Member and lover of strawberry-rhubarb, qualifications include being a former vendor of another round baked-good (bagels) and gently imploring his wife to contribute to this competition every year,
  • Madeleine Gwynne – New West Pride VP who’s got her eye on the pies!

Think your favourite pie recipe has what it takes to compete for the title? Enter your pie and review the rules here.

Prefer to be a spectator for this sport? Swing by NWFM on August 15th to watch pies being judged (starting at 5:30pm) and then grab a slice (or a few slices!) by donation to New West Pride. This competition is fierce!

Come by and eat pie! Only on August 15th at the New West Farmers Market in Tipperary Park next to New West City Hall.
