Centerville Pie Company

It gained fame when it was mentioned on Oprah Winfrey's Favorite Things episode in 2010.

[1] Centerville pies were at one time sold through the Harry & David corporation, and are currently available via Goldbelly.

The company was founded by long-time friends and current owners Laurie Bowen and Kristin Broadley in March, 2009.

In 2009, as Oprah Winfrey and friend Gayle King was attending the funeral of Eunice Kennedy Shriver, then Kristin Broadley delivered to them a chicken pie and a peach pie as a gift.

Immediately, the two women became fans of the pies and Gayle went and bought two for her children, Kirby and Will.
