The Hospice of Haines dessert booth volunteers at the Southeast Alaska State Fair witnessed a steady stream of extraordinary baked donations into the fair booth…pies, cakes, tortes and cookies lovingly made with the finest ingredients. On behalf of all of those who receive our services, our volunteers and staff, thank you with sugar on top to the crème-de-le crème bakers of the Chilkat Valley. A special thank you for those who donated sugar-free, egg, or gluten-free desserts; these were big hits and a sign of the healthy days to come. Now that the fair is weeks behind us, don’t forget your fruits and vegetables!
