Morning Loaf Bakery Keith

A LITTLE OF MYSELF:
My name is Heather Harvey and I was born in Keith—(many years ago) I married a local farmer and had two beautiful children—Chad Makin (now a farmer in Keith) and Georgina Makin (in Adelaide). After leaving Keith for several years, I returned to purchase the Morning Loaf Keith in September 2002. Since this time, I have gained a very special daughter-in-law along with two adorable grandchildren.

MY BUSINESS:
I pride myself and my staff on Service, Presentation & Consistency
My business was originally located at the corner of Makin & Hender Streets ’ Keith (opposite the Hotel) - I had been in this location for 9 years when the opportunity of my present location arose. I re-located to the corner of Makin & Heritage Streets (opposite the public toilets) in October 2011.
The majority of my bakery items are produced at the Morning Loaf Bakehouse in Bordertown—you really should try one of the pies that ‘HAVE NEVER BEEN EATEN’. The main shop area consists of ‘OLDE’ WORLD CHARM’ and should you wish to have a taste of (or reminisce) then take yourself into the ‘RETRO ROOM or RETRO LOUNGE’. For those of you with a young family, please enjoy the ‘KIDZ BIZ PLAYROOM’ (great when too cold or wet for the park). TOURIST INFORMATION is also available in the main shop area. ALFRESCO is beautiful on a sunny day.
FREE TEA & COFFEE —the only condition is that you make it yourself!!
CARRIES COTTAGE (LOUNGE RETRO AREA)
This area is Heritage listed. The following research is taken from the TATIARA BOOK (the first 140 years) Carries Cottage was first opened in 1907 by Mr CS Wylie and known as ‘Wylies Up to Date Store’. In approx. 1918 Mr Clive Densley operated as a local agent for the SA Farmers Union and established his office in ‘Carries’. Mr Leo Seppelt began as a Shell agent on the frontage of the now (Retro Room) in about 1948. In the 1950s Mr William Langmaid commenced a garage (now the Retro Room, I believe) for use as a lubritorium, selling petrol, doing repairs and servicing of vehicles. At an unknown date, I would guess late 60s early 70s, the building I am in became a ‘FOUR SQUARE STORE’ operated by Cliff & Roma Davis. Anyone with knowledge of the earlier days of this building would be more than welcome to share.
