Just Around the Corner

Thanksgiving is closer that you want to think. But have no fear, we have some excellent breads, desserts, sauces, and recipes and more to make your Thanksgiving the best you've ever had.

Stuffing is a must on every Thanksgiving table and we have the best bread to use for your stuffing.; Stuffing Bread. It's complete with onion, celery, garlic and all the herbs and spices that make that wonderful Thanksgiving aroma that you love. And if you're looking for a new stuffing recipe, we have one for you. Stop by the store and pick it up. We'll also post it here soon.

The After Thanksgiving sandwich is a classic. We have some excellent Stonewall Kitchen sauces and mustards for yours. We recommend the Pub Mustard, the Cranberry Horseradish sauce (if you like a nice kick in your sandwich) or the New England Cranberry Relish.

Pie, Pie and more Pie

Our pies are delightful, if we do say so ourselves. This year, we will have Apple Crumb, Pumpkin and Pecan pies available by order or in VERY LIMITED QUANTITIES on Tuesday, November 24 and Wednesday, November 25. We really recommend you order your pie in advance. We would hate for you to suffer the Thanksgiving Tragedy of 2009 and end up with no dessert! Operators are standing by. Call us today!

Thanksgiving Hours

Our hours for the week of Thanksgiving are posted on the left side of the page.

We hope to see you soon. Your friends at the Great Harvest in Columbia.

November to be Thankful For

We have so many wonderful breads this November, you probably won't know where to begin! Cranberry Orange, a holiday favorite is back and available on Thursdays this month. This bread is so great, we also feature it on our Gobbler Special sandwich, but there will be more about that in a bit. Filled with dried cranberries and lots of pureed orange, this bread fills your head with visions of your beautifully set Thanksgiving table.

If you crave something savory, Stuffing Bread is for you. We aren't kidding. This bread, with all your favorite herbs and spices, smells just like stuffing so it's a natural choice for your Thanksgiving table. You can use it for your stuffing or just let everyone pull off big hunks.

Many of you will beg and plead with us to make Pumpkins Ohs all year but we have to resist. But the time has arrived and Pumpkin Ohs are BACK!!! Get them on Wednesdays. We recommend ordering these in advance as they go fast.

Holiday Hours

As with each Thanksgiving week, we will be open Monday and Tuesday from 6:30 am until 6:00 pm and Wednesday from 6:30 am until 4:00 pm. It's not too early to place your prepaid Thanksgiving orders, either. Stop by and check out our Thanksgiving menu.

We hope to see you soon. Your friends at the Great Harvest in Columbia.

What to do with an Extra Hour?

Make Pancakes of course! You were probably thinking of sleeping away that extra hour you get on Sunday morning when Daylight Savings Time ends (or does it start?). But why sleep when you can make your family pancakes?

Great Harvest has wonderful Whole Grain Pancake Mix that make some delicious hearty pancakes that will help your kids recover from their Halloween excess in healthy style. We also have Pumpkin Spice Pancake Mix. If waffles are more your thing, don't fret! You can use the same recipe on the package to make waffles!

You may remember the delectable Ginger Bread Pancake Mix we had last winter. That will be back on the shelf very soon, too.

While you are making the pancakes, have someone change your smoke detector batteries!

We hope to see you soon. Your friends at the Great Harvest in Columbia.

More New Stuff!

Here is some new stuff! We know how much you love Maggie and Mary's Soup mixes, so we got some Dip mixes, too. The Perfect Veggie Dip is very popular already, but we think the Caramelized Onion and Sesame Parmesan are to die for!

Pumpkin everything is very popular at this time of year, so we got Maggie and Mary's Pumpkin Soup Mix. If pumpkin soup isn't your think, we also got Chicken Dumpling, Chill Chasin' Chili and Creamy Wild Rice.

We really love these new cheeseball mixes from Kitchen Dancer, especially the Orange Cranberry. Just mix them up with cream cheese and butter and you will have the perfect spread for our delicious breads. We especially love the Orange Cranberry on our High Five Fiber, available every Wednesday.

We have these tasty treats and lots more!

We hope to see you soon! Your friends at the Great Harvest in Columbia.

Football Fun

We love football and we have the best breads for your football gatherings, Gouda Stout and Cheddar Garlic. Imagine this: Lean deli meat, tomatoes, lettuce, spicy Dijon mustard, perhaps a spot of mayo on warm bread with big hunks of cheese. Yummy! Can you think of a better treat for you as you cheer your favorite team to victory? We can't! Cheddar Garlic is available on Fridays and Gouda Stout is available on Saturdays. If you don't want to wait until Sunday for your sandwich, swing on by. You might be able to convince us to make you a fabulous sandwich on one of these amazing cheesy breads.

Ghoulish Good Times
Halloween is right around the corner and we will, once again, be making Chocolate Brownie Bread cupcakes. These delectable goodies, made with no eggs or butter make an excellent party treat for all the little ghouls and goblins in your life. Call today and place an order. Cupcakes will be available on October 30th.

We hope to see you soon. Your friends at the Great Harvest in Columbia.
