  • From Coast to Coast America Celebrates National Pie Day

    American Pie Council Newsletter www.piecouncil.org Winter 2008 FROM COAST TO COAST AMERICA CELEBRATES NATIONAL PIE DAY The American Pie Council and its members encouraged all Americans to celebrate National Pie Day’s 25th anniversary on January 23rd by encouraging pie lovers to “pay it forward” by spreading goodwill through sharing pie with loved ones and strangers alike. From coast to coast, APC members, sponsors and other supporters participated in National Pie Day in a big way this year. In the Midwestern town of Columbus, Nebraska, Phyllis Bartholomew of Blue Ribbon Pie Co. delivered free, fresh-baked pies to first responder and military personnel, including local fire fighters, police officers and members of the armed forces. Cookbook author and frequent Food Network contributor John Michael Lerma shared his expert pie baking knowledge by conducting a class on National Pie Day at the Cooks of Crocus Hill in St. Paul, Minnesota. Taxi drivers across Chicago hung apple pie-scented air fresheners from the American Pie Council – they’ll “pay it forward” by giving their passengers the comforting aroma of apple pie as they travel along their journey. And in Frankenmuth, Michigan, the Michigan Apple Committee hosted a National Pie Day contest to determine Michigan’s Best Apple Pie. The winner, Fred Burns received $500 "Pie Team" with iVillage Live co-hosts on National Pie Day and a free trip to Florida to compete in the APC Crisco National Pie Championships in April.

All organic wines listed and of course amazing pies are available at Whole Foods Market and 365 by Whole Foods as well as other fine retailers nationwide. National Pie Day History National Pie Day was established in 1975 by then grade school teacher Charlie Papazian in Boulder, Colorado, in a simple declaration to his kindergarten, first and second grade students that his birthday, January 23, would be National Pie Day. He filed the proper paperwork to have the holiday established nationwide and the rest is history. Papazian’s Halloween costume that year was a giant blueberry pie. National Pie Day celebration eventually spurred the creation of the American Pie Council, an industry trade group that brought to life Papazian’s dream of a pie bakeoff at the Great American Pie Festival, now the National Pie Championship. While Papazian went on to establish the now world- famous Great American Beer Festival, we have it on good authority that he does appreciate good organic wine & pie pairings as well! A Brief History of pie, courtesy of the American Pie Council: • Pie has been around since the ancient Egyptians. The first pies were made by early Romans who may have learned about it through the Greeks. These pies were sometimes made in “reeds” which were used for the sole purpose of holding the filling and not for eating with the filling.
