Thank you, Bakers! 🥧
What a day! A huge thank you to every baker who brought a pie or crisp to Memorial Plaza, and to everyone who came out to cheer, taste, and buy a slice. Every slice sold supports the Market, so thank you for making this year’s contest such a sweet success. Mark your calendars: next year’s Apple Pie Contest is Saturday, September 25, 2027!
Congratulations to our 2026 winners!
