Our annual DCHS Bake Sale – with its roots stretching back 40 years ago to the saving of the Knute Nelson House – is back for 2026!
New in 2026 – we’re offering two days of Bake Sale for those who can’t make it in on Friday!

If you would like to donate treats to the Bake Sale, please call ahead and let us know what you’ll be bringing. The DCHS phone number is 320-762-0382.

The DCHS Bake Sale will be the First Friday and Saturday of December: Dec. 4-5, 2026, from 9:00 a.m. to 2:00 p.m. each day.

The Bake Sale will be on the MAIN LEVEL of the Knute Nelson House – NOT the basement – so we will be better accessible for our guests. All guests should enter through the FRONT DOOR on the WEST SIDE (Nokomis Street) of the building.

Copies of our Holiday & Hotdish Cookbooks will also be available at the Bake Sale for $10 each, as well as our local historic photo calendars, for $18.
If you have any questions, please contact us right away at DCHS!
