A hundred years ago, Harmon had two brick ovens in the bakery that were fired with wood. After the ashes were brushed out, the bread was put in to bake, followed by the buns, Dutch Letters, cookies, and finally rusks as the ovens slowly cooled down before re-firing.

So popular now that you can't make Christmas shipping in over a week? Disappointing to say the least 😢 

Business response:
