ABOUT US

A Fresh Start


The Great Harvest Bread Company of Stow is locally owned and operated by Carl and Nancy May. We have been area residents since 1994 and customers of the Great Harvest we now own. As the second owners of this local bakery, we are pleased to continue to service the community with the very best, fresh-baked from scratch whole-grain breads and sweets they love.

The Stow bakery has been serving great breads and sweets for over 20 years. We are bringing a fresh clean look while keeping the core products in tack. Our products are made by hand from scratch daily. We mill whole wheat berries from the golden triangle in Montana on site. We offer free slices to all customers. 

 As long time area residents, and customers of Great Harvest ourselves, we feel great about offering you and your family products that are free from preservatives and made from simple ingredients with time-tested processes and recipes. Did you know our core Honey Whole Wheat bread is made with only 5 ingredients (whole grain wheat flour, water, yeast, salt and honey)? Read the labels of breads at other stores and you will find many additives. The same goes for our delicious scones, cookies, tea cakes and muffins. 

 Our bakery also 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 communities needs. The “Franchise” part gives us access to the recipes and processes that Great Harvest has continuously improved for over 3 decades. That results in us being able to provide you the products you prefer and in a setting we hope you will find pleasant and comforting each time you come to visit. 

 Thanks for visiting our page and we look forward to meeting you the next time you stop in by.

This Great Harvest Bread Co. in Stow is a dream come true — our dream! 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.
