A Fresh Start

Your Great Harvest Bread Co. in Olivette/St. Louis County is a dream come true — our dream! We’ve been milling wheat and making bread for family and friends for many years. Our passion for great tasting, nutritious bread, and our desire to run a community-based business, led us to Great Harvest. They have been making great bread for communities across the U.S. for over 30 years. 

Your OlivetteSt. Louis Great Harvest looks like no other Great Harvest out there. We operate under a “Freedom Franchise.” The “Freedom” part means that we get to run our business in a way that meets our community’s unique needs. The “Franchise” part gives us access to the recipes and processes that GH has continuously improved for over two decades. The result is breads and sweets that will knock your socks off!
   

Olivette has been our home for seven years. Steve is originally from the Chicago area.  Alecia was born and raised on the other side of the river in Collinsville, IL.  Our daughter Jessica is in college and was a graduate of Ladue High School.  Several years ago we made the decision to pursue our dream. So, we said good-bye to Corporate America, kicked the suit and tie and are now up to our elbows in dough. We’re excited to bring this tradition to you, our neighbors and friends.  If you ever dreamed of owning your own Great Harvest Bread Store, talk to us.   We are currently looking for business partners to help us grow the business and carry on the dream of this community neighborhood bakery.  

We thank all the nearby communities for their continued support over the last 10 years; St. Louis, Olivette, Creve Coeur, Ladue, University City, Florissant, Ferguson, Maryland Heights, Chesterfield, Frontenac, Clayton, Richmond Heights, Kirkwood, The Central West End,  Tower Grove Park, Maplewood and St. Louis City.

Thanks for stopping by, we love baking for you!
