Business Owner at 23

WOW....owning my own business, never had thougt that I would have my own store to run at 23 years of age! But its true , Mary Jo has given me the best opportunity in the world, something that I have always dreamed of, baking and making money from it!! I have just been running the pie company on my own since middle of November, it has been great learning sooo much. I was worried about the winter months for business but I was lucky and an article in The Sun Times made the pie company a place to stop so it has been busy!
I have been lucky with the new staff that I hired and I have just hired a new employee because I just can't keep up the the pie!!! I supply pies to the Rocky Raccoon Cafe in Owen Sound and now at the Green Door Cafe in Wiarton. This next week I am busy baking for a dinner with auther Rose Murray of Taste of Canada at the Rocky Raccoon on Thursday Feb 12, I have to make recipes from her cookbook and present them at the dinner! Exciting!!

  1. I just love your pies, and the fact that you are only 23 years of age does not surprise me. I feel that if you have the desire and love what you do, you will be successful. I voted for the strawberry/rhubarb but your pecan pie is awesome too.

    Best of luck with your business and the dinner with author Rose Murray that must be so exciting for you
