The Night of a Thousand Pies
Since 2006 The Night of a Thousand Pies has been a popular event in Kent’s autumn calendar, ushering in the holiday season. Usually the first Saturday of each November, people gather for a pie sale and tasting and for dinners in private homes to raise funds for Kent Affordable Housing’s programs. In 2017 the pie sale was expanded to include a Makers' Market featuring products from creative individuals in town. This year the dinners will be replaced by a preview and a chance to buy gifts for yourself or others in the holiday season.
YES! WE NEED PIES!
Calling all our community bakers, chefs and gourmands! We are seeking donations of tasty fruit pies, tarts, crostatas and galettes to be featured at the sale (Health regulations limit the donated pies from private bakers to fruit pies and other non-dairy options).
Your home baked pies can be dropped off at St. Andrews on Friday, Nov. 2nd from 2-5pm or Saturday, Nov. 3rd, before 10am. For information or pie pick-up, contact Donna Sommers at 203-556-2951 or des.sommers@gmail.com
