We share stories about real bakery cafe owners, insights from 30+ years of teaching and supporting small businesses, plus tips about making healthy choices, especially with whole grains. Oh...and some great recipes to surprise your family and friends!
Great Harvest was born out of a single (and amazingly delicious) whole grain bread recipe, developed by our founders to feed their friends and family. Over time, we’ve branched out to develop an array of products with a nod to our roots. Our healthy bakeries are locally-famous for their great-tasting, slow-made-from-scratch food that goes far beyond our 5-ingredient Honey Whole Wheat. Today, you may get hooked on our addictively good sandwiches, salads, grain bowls, biscuits or cookies before you even purchase your first loaf of whole grain bread! Still, we approach the creation of all our food with the same basic principles that were baked into our first loaf of bread.
Each Great Harvest Bread Co. store is locally owned and operated. Owning a Great Harvest business is more than just a job -- it's a whole way of life and whole lot of fun. Each local franchise owner develops a unique product line to serve the needs and preferences of their customers. We are a Freedom Franchise where each owner has the freedom and flexibility to make their bakery cafe a one-of-a-kind neighborhood destination.
