In 1990, Braham was named the "Homemade Pie Capital of Minnesota" by Governor Rudy Perpich.It gained fame for pie in the 1930s and 40s when folks would drive to their lake homes using the "shortcut to Duluth through Braham." Today is Braham Pie Day. Because of the coronavirus pandemic it has been canceled for 2020. The menu usually includes more than 1100 pies and artisan pies. A feast!
