The Tyson Ladies’ Aid Association will hold its annual Easter Pie & Bake Sale at the Shaw’s shopping plaza in Ludlow, Vermont on Good Friday, April 18th, 2014 from 10 a.m. to noon. Home made pies will be featured among a wide array of cakes, cookies, muffins and breads.

“This is an event that I look forward to every year” said Marge Harlow a member for over 50 years. “We have some amazing ladies who are very proud of their home baked goods and the ingredients they use.”

The Tyson Ladies’ Aid Association was founded in 1880 to raise funds to bring a church to Tyson. In 1887, the Ladies had purchased the Tyson Iron Works office and established the Tyson Library at that site. After a period of inactivity, they reorganized in 1910 and have operated continuously since then, using money raised to support the library, fund scholarships and benefit the local community.
