The Dish on the Goods
• 100% organic, NC milled flour
• seasonal local fruit and nuts
• local free range eggs
• 100% made from scratch
• no hydrogenated fats

I began selling pie as way to use my skills as a baker to engage in the agrarian economy and community of WNC. All of the ingredients I use are natural and minimally processed. I also have a passion for using obscure recipes and specialty ingredients like sorghum, black walnuts, and muscadines. In so doing, I hope to be a part of preserving our unique and lovely Southern Appalachian culture.
