Ol’ Mary’s Chili Cook-Off
Our annual Chili Cook-Off will be back October 2, 2027.
Guests at the pumpkin patch can sample chili and vote for the best in show and for the best showmanship by a team.
2026 Chili Cook-Off Winners:
Let Them Cook! – Best Taste, Best Showmanship and Overall Champion
We had three teams compete this year. A fourth team had to cancel due to illness. Our Pleasant Ridge team tried to duplicate chili from a well known fast food chain. Let Them Cook! Added bacon to their entry. Sean Licktieg’s entry was strong on tomatoes. They are all looking forward to competing next year.
It looks like we are close to equaling our record donation to the Franklin County Cancer Foundation of $3800.
