Combining the perfect ingredients to create a made-from-scratch pie doesn\u2019t require knowing the mathematical value of pi. But celebrating Pi Day on March 14 is the perfect equation for great-tasting dessert.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe make a wide variety of pies from scratch,\u201d says Eric Amadio, who owns and runs Amadio Ranch with his wife, Christina, and their young adult son and daughter. \u201cIf there\u2019s a holiday called Pi Day, then it\u2019s definitely an occasion to celebrate with pie.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n

Amadio Ranch offers mouth-watering pies year-round including Apple, Peach, Cherry, Blueberry, Caramel Apple and Strawberry Rhubarb. For the holiday, the ovens will be baking some specialty pies, including Rhubarb, Very Berry, Buttermilk, Pecan, Bourbon Pecan, Buttermilk, Pumpkin, Chocolate Chess Pie and more. They have recently added a delicious Chicken Pot Pie to their lineup.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Pi Day originated more than 30 years ago to pay tribute to pi, the infinite mathematical number that represents the ratio of the circumference of any circle to the diameter of that circle. (Pies are circles \u2013 another reason to eat pie on Pi Day!)<\/span><\/p>\n

Physicist Larry Shaw started the celebration in 1988. He chose\u00a0<\/span>March 14 because the numerical date (3.14) represents the first three digits of pi. The date also happens to be Albert Einstein\u2019s birthday.<\/span><\/p>\n

Where and when to get your pies<\/span><\/h3>\n

Eric, Christina and everyone at Amadio Ranch are busily baking and getting pies ready in advance for the March pie date. Orders (which can be made online) will be delivered on or near March 14. Here\u2019s the schedule for where to pick up your pre-ordered pie:<\/span><\/p>\n
