Pumpkin Pie Contest

October 9, 2021 @ 10:00 am - 2:00 pm

Free to enter your homemade pie; drop-off between 10AM and 2:00 PM

Join in the fun of the Hillsdale Pumpkin Festival by baking and bringing your best homemade pumpkin pie to the HGS Home Chef kitchen between 10 AM and 2:00 PM on Oct. 10th. HGS Home Chef is located at 2635 State Rt 23, Hillsdale NY.

At 3:00 pm, the HGS Home Chef Team will judge the pies and select the winner.

First place prize is a $50 gift certificate to use toward a cooking class or merchandise at HGS Home Chef. Second place prize is a $25 gift certificate usable at either HGS Home Chef or Hillsdale General Store. Participants are welcome back to the store between 4:00 – 4:45 PM to collect their pies (or what’s left of them!). The winners will be contacted with the good news.

Here’s how to enter:

“Register” your entry by using the Eventbrite ticket system to order a ticket (it’s free), so we know who to expect. (Last-minute walk-in pie entries will be welcome, as well.)

It’s important that you attach your name, phone number and email address to the pie container. Any other information about the pie would be helpful, such as a particular ingredient or technique that you feel sets your pie apart.

This contest is FREE to all who bring in a pie. All ages are welcome to enter, in fact, we’ve awarded some very young bakers in the past.
