Great Harvest Bread Boulder: home made pies and rolls for Thanksgiving

The Ovens are on 24 Hours a Day and they make Enough Pumpkin Pies For the Entire County

Boulder, Colorado, November 12, 2010: “On Tuesday and Wednesday before Thanksgiving our ovens are on 24 hours a day,” said Scott Creevy, owner of Great Harvest Bread Company in Boulder. Their homemade pies and specialty breads create a clamor at Thanksgiving.

“Today, we pealed 20 bushels of apples,” Creevy said. Their most popular pies are apple, pumpkin and pecan. They will be making hundreds of pumpkin pies beginning 5:00pm Tuesday, November 23. The reason for the popularity is that their baked goods are made from scratch. Real homemade baking!

For over 27 years, Creevy and his wife Sally have run the family owned business where their 9” deep dish pies are made from their own recipes. “We mill our own flower, too,” he said.

Honey whole wheat is their best selling bread. “But, at the holidays, everyone wants our cranberry orange and pecan swirl specialty breads,” Creevy said. “Oregon herb is the one they want for stuffing”

They take orders for their pies and specialty breads but not for dinner rolls. “We bake enough dinner rolls for the entire county,” he said.

Great Harvest Bread is a destination stop, especially at Thanksgiving. “For 27 years it’s a tradition for people to come here for dinner rolls for their Thanksgiving feasts,” Creevy said. Customers stop by for a free slice of bread, too.

The store is so busy they “staff-up” and hire many more personnel during the holidays. Crowds of customers fill this local bakery on Tuesday and Wednesday, November 23 and 24, before Thanksgiving.

“We look forward to Thanksgiving each year but it’s a relief when it’s over,” Scott Creevy said.

Great Harvest Bread Company is located at 2525 Arapahoe Avenue in Boulder, on the corner of Folsom and Arapahoe. Scott and Sally Creevy have owned and operated the business since May 1983. They use their own personal recipes for pies. Along with pies and specialty breads, they offer cookies, muffins and sandwiches along with coffee drinks. www.ghboulder.com 303-442-3062email: screevy@indra.com
