Ahead of the first night of Passover on Wednesday, the Pikesville Volunteer Fire Company hosted a safe burning event for the community to dispose ofleavened products. Pikesville is home to one of Maryland's largest Jewish communities. During Passover, Jewish families abstain from eating leavened products, known as Chametz. The fire company provided a row of barrels for residents to burn everything from bread to pretzels to cereal while firefighters kept watch. #passover #pikesvillemd #chamentz
