Where To Buy Local – Thanksgiving Desserts

This week families and friends will gather together to celebrate Thanksgiving. It’s a holiday rich in reflection and food.

Turkey, ham, stuffing, candied yams… many delicious foods will be enjoyed. And just when you think you can’t eat another bite – DESSERT!

I am sure plenty of you enjoy baking from scratch. Maybe each year you make grandma’s famous pumpkin pie or you’ve been “Pinning” dozens of recipes you just can’t wait to bake. But, if you are running out of time or it’s just easier to pick something up from the store, I’m on your side with some tasty ideas!

The best part… they are all from locally-owned businesses because remember, it’s important to shop local this holiday season.

Summertime Pies

If it’s pie you are looking for, you may want to try Summertime Pies. Their food truck is a staple at Gazebo Gardens and Enzo’s Table.
