In The News:
As a family business, we know the importance of community. We provided close to 100 pounds of Perfect Pierogies to the Beausejour and Area Food Bank in the Fall of 2020. Community development is what we hang our hats on. During COVID-19 we were happy to extend our business to help those in the community in need. Have a listen to our interview with CJOB below.
