POTSDAM -- The Potsdam Food Co-op raised $589 for the Potsdam Neighborhood Center at their 19th Baking Fest and Silent Auction.
The event was held Dec. 11 in a new location this year since the Coop's Carriage House Bakery is busy creating their breads, scones, and knots every day of the week.
Eager visitors gathered just down the street from the co-op in the community room at the Potsdam Town Hall at 18 Elm St.
Those who attended silently voted for their favorites and many placed bids on the creations in the silent auction for a chance to bring home a special treat.
Kristal Hayes, director of the Potsdam Neighborhood Center, helped to serve and was available to talk with visitors and answer questions about the work the neighborhood center does for those in the community.
The bakers with the most votes in each category of our friendly baking contest, and winners of a $25 Co-op Gift Certificate are: cookies: double chocolate mint cookies by Mercy Maurer; desserts: chocolate zucchini cake with buttercream frosting by Gail Anderson; special diet: flourless chocolate cake by Beth Robinson and savory: vegetable samosas by Rose Rivezzi.
