Fall 2016

WE'RE THANKFUL FOR THE OPPORTUNITY TO GIVE

COMMUNITY COOKS

 

Basil Tree is committed not only to environmental sustainability, but also being a positive influence on our community. Helping us with this goal is Community Cooks. They pair individuals and businesses with charitable organizations that need help feeding the populations they serve.

 

We help by providing lunch once a month to a group of students participating in an after school tutoring program. Many of these students would otherwise go without lunch and we're glad to be a small part in changing that.

COMMUNITY SERVINGS

 

This will be our 21st year baking pies and our 5th year selling them for Pie in the Sky! Last year we shattered Community Servings record by making 250 pecan pies by hand, making us the largest supplier of hand-rolled pies for the fundraiser. This year we're going to push it even farther. This is all to raise money for Community Servings, a local charity that prepares and delivers meals to critically ill, homebound individuals and families throughout Massachusetts.  Each year some of the best restaurants and bakeries in the area donate pies so that you can buy one!  The proceeds from one pie will feed an ill individual for an entire week!

 

Purchase a pie and pick it up at one of the many locations around the city the day before Thanksgiving (sorry, we can't guarantee that the pie you'll get will be a Basil Tree pie).
