The Second Annual Pie and Storytelling Festival took place Sunday, June 27 at the UU Church in Belfast. Our tellers ranged in age from 9 to 90. Hila Shooter told "The Bakers Smell" with fiddle and Philip Sweetland regaled us with good old down east humor. The Third Annual Pie and Story Festival was held October 2nd, 2005 at
the Boat House.
The 4th Annual Pie and Story Festival was another wonderful success! Tellers Scot Cannon, Diane O'Brien and Jennifer Armstrong delighted one and all. Sandy Oliver published the winning recipe in the Bangor Daily news and Living Landscape once again handed out prizes to the pies with the most local ingredients.
