About Us




Our Story
More than 80 years ago, the Gardner family began baking pies with a simple belief: the best desserts are made with quality ingredients, time-honored recipes, and plenty of love. What started as a family tradition has grown into a third-generation business dedicated to bringing that same homemade taste to tables across the country.
Based in Akron, Ohio, Gardner Pie Company specializes in unbaked and prebaked fruit pies, as well as specialty pies crafted with care and attention to detail. Every pie reflects our commitment to quality, from the ingredients we select to the recipes that have been passed down through generations.
While much has changed over the years, our purpose remains the same—to create pies that taste like they came straight from your kitchen. We believe great food brings people together, whether it's a holiday gathering, a family dinner, or a simple weeknight dessert.
For generations, families have trusted Gardner Pie to be part of their traditions. We're proud to continue that legacy, one pie at a time, proving that the secret ingredient has always been a little love.
