We’ve been really busy today with folks coming in for bread – and free cookies!! Come one, come all, while they last! Thanks to all of our customers for making our first year the best <3
We also have tastings of all of our nut butters (!!!)
Gift basket drawings
And some awesome guitar music by our friends Miles and Megan!
I’ve been on my feet all morning and paused around 11 for a hot glazed cinnamon bun snack!
And then at 1pm had a pimento cheese sandwich on sourdough
Plus strawberries
Sweet Drake, the son of one of our awesome bakers, brought me this heartbeat bear for baby KERF! So cute all dressed up : ) Thanks guys!
And that’s the end of that chapter!

Happy Birthday! & I LOVE the Gilmore Girls

What an exciting day! It sounds like you guys are having tons of fun at the bakery. That was so cute of the little boy to bring in a teddy for Baby KERF! I can’t believe it’s already been a whole year since you and Matt started the whole Great Harvest adventure. Congrats!
Ahhh so exciting! Congrats, You’ve made it a year and seem to be doing amazing!!! What a big accomplishment for both of you, and your staff!
Happy Anniversary to you, Matt and your staff! Well-deserved!
Think I’ll make it for a free cookie if I leave Pittsburgh now?
Congrats on one year – you guys work so hard!
Happy Anniversary both for the bakery and the wedding! I hope you have an incredible day and hopefully celebrate more tomorrow!
omg!! so exciting! I want a cookie, cinnamon bun, and loaf of bread from your shop so bad!!! Here’s to many MANY more years to come!!
It has been a year already? Goodness time flies. You just keep baking up tons of new goodies. Wish I was close enough to snag a cookie.
Send one of your free cookies to me, I’ll pay COD!
Just had sardines for lunch for the first time! I always see you eating them on your blog – so I thought it was time to try them out – They were pretty good!
Yay!
Congrats to both you and Matt!
Happy 1 Year to the bakery! I’m sure it feels great to see that all of your hard work has paid off for the last year.
pimento cheese & hot cinnamon buns…that is a great weekend, right there!
happy 1 year to the bakery and 5 year to you guys!
Looks like such fun! You’ve worked hard and your efforts show in your success…Congratulations to Kath and Matt and everyone at Great Harvest Cville!!
Happy Anniversaries! I love that t-shirt “It’s nice to be kneaded;” I loved to make bread puns when my husband was working at Breadsmith.
Hope people enjoyed the Wild Squirrel!! Happy Anniversary
Congradulations on your first year! Looks like so much fun! Wish I could just ‘pop’ on over and participate but alas, there are too many kilometers between to travel!
Enjoy your day!
HAPPY ANNIVERSARY TO THE BAKERY!!!!
Amazing how time flies! Congratulations. We were just at our local GH today. Husband is 2 cookies in already! Heh.
Congrats on one year! Looks like it was a fun but very tiring day!
Congrats Kath on 1 year! That went by fast!~
What a cute lil’ bear to add to your bear collection! Wonder what his name will be?
What about Dakota, since he is from your bakers?

That’s a wonderful name
Oh yum! I’m curious, what do you think your blogging will be like once the baby comes? Takin a break from it?
My hope is to keep KERF going as usual – it shouldn’t be toooo hard since I have to eat. I think the meals will be more in action and less set up.
BERF will probably become mostly a baby photo blog with posts written when I have time
Congrats on your successful year. I’m sure there will be many more to come. I wish I lived closer, I’d be there in a snap for some of those cinna buns. Drewl.
I hope the bears will be welcoming to the new bear!
Congratulations on the 1st anniversary!
congratulations on both anniversaries! beautiful post!
I can’t believe it’s been a year! It feels like it was just yesterday you guys were starting this journey! Congrats, congrats, congrats! So well deserved – I’m sure it will be another year filled of award-winning bread
Loving that “It’s nice to be kneaded” shirt! Oh bread jokes. They never get old.
Cookies are the best ending to just about everything–a night, 1 year of business, etc. Well then again, they’re a great beginning too
I’m always so jealous of your pimento cheese sandwiches!!! Happy GH Anniversary!
Your sandwiches always look so delicious! I’m hate that the Great Harvests here (Raleigh & Cary, NC) don’t offer anything like them
Hi Kath-
Just realized there is a Great Harvest Bread right near me in MA!! Do you have a suggestion for your favorite or “healthiest” bread? It seems they have a very similar menu to your Great Harvest! Can’t wait to go!
Thanks,
Kate
Look for flax oat Bran… That’s our Cville Crunch! Or High Five, Dakota.
