About Us

A Greeting From Bonnie Fleming, Authorized Aga Distributor

I would like to thank all of my Aga friends for your kindness and support, especially during the last few years when I have had to take a leave because of my parents’ illnesses and deaths and my husband’s tragic accident. I miss our visits and our conversations. So many of you have welcomed me into your lives and your homes, and I treasure your friendship.

I continue to be somewhat overwhelmed with my added responsibilities at home but I have discovered that returning to my Aga work is a welcome diversion and I hope to talk with each one of you very soon.

Bon Aga,

Bonnie

Meet Bonnie and Chrissie

Bonnie Fleming and Chrissie hughesIn 1990, Bonnie Fleming, a community volunteer, wife and mother, was looking for a career that combined sales, travel, cooking and home. After learning about the Aga, she developed a business which uniquely combined all of her passions. Bonnie devised a cooking demonstration which spotlights the ease of Aga cooking and allows others to taste the Aga difference. Her demonstration is now used by dealers and distributors all over the country. For many years, she has taken Aga owners to England and France to see behind the scenes of Aga, visit the factory, the foundry and to attend cooking schools.

Bonnie has been featured in Southern Living, The Charlotte Observer, The Business Journal, Builder-Architect and The Wall Street Journal and is widely recognized as the Aga guru in the United States. She has been the top Aga Cooker distributor in North America for almost 20 years!

After a 7 year career in public relations, Chrissie Hughes, decided to join her mother in the Aga business and opened Aga Thyme, a retail outlet for Aga. Mother-and-daughter team, Bonnie Fleming and Chrissie Hughes have poured their hearts and souls into the store, which is a reflection of their tastes and high standards.

Meet Walter Sands

Walter SandsIt makes sense that the Number One AGA Distributor in the country would recommend the Number One AGA Technician!

Walter C. Sands—DBA as The AGA Man—has been installing AGAs full time since 1997. He installs well over a hundred units a year.

Walter grew up on a farm in Pennsylvania , where he learned to be “a jack of all trades.” While he was a manager for a retail furniture chain for more than 20 years, he missed working with his hands. He completed the AGA technical training school and has made AGA his full time livelihood.

Walter's pleasant personality, dependability and technical expertise make him the most sought-after AGA technician in the country. He is conscientious and very detail oriented.
