Welcome to Pie in the Sky and thank you for your interest in becoming a Pie Baker! Every fall, 150 Chefs bake and donate 13,000 pies which we sell for $25 each, in support our mission to feed 1300 critically ill people in Massachusetts. This year our goal is to raise $525,000. For every pie you bake, a family of five will be able to sit down to a nutritious Thanksgiving dinner - a meal they may not otherwise have had.
