The festival is also going to have a pie baking contest where our very own Miriam Tapia will be a judge in.

This year we have 12 cottage industry and professional bakers that are going to be involved as well as six of the Broward school culinary programs that are in it. So you're going to be eating a lot of pie. That's a lot of stretchy pants. You're gonna need intermission to walk around and get into a loop.
