Moms History |
|
|
Moms Pie House was founded in December, 1984. At that time, the entire bakery measured a whopping 10' by 22'. Mom used one small electric oven for all of her baking, and a counter mounted apple peeler to peel all of her apple. Not long after Mom sold her first pie, word started to spread about the apple pie at Moms Pie House. Soon the shop was packed during the weekends, all eight seats were filled and people had to eat their pie on the street! |

|
| After the fall of 87' Mom started to expand the shop to include a larger kitchen and more seating. During the expansion, Moms would open during the weekends, inorder to pay for the renovations being done on the shop each week. Thanks to the support of loyal customers, Moms now had seating for everyone, and more ovens so everyone could enloy the apple pie |

Eventually mom started to make more than just apple pie. Through the years all of Mom's childern have worked in the shop |

| What Kind of apples do you use? |
|
|

Generally, Mom likes to use Jonathans and Granny Smiths, because they have a great taste, good texture, and hold up to baking just right. However, Moms will use almost any local Julian Apple when they are in season. Jona-Gold, Arkansas Black, Empire, Golden Delicious, Pippin, and Macintosh are a few of the local varitals Moms uses during Julian Applle Days! |
