Does the Portland Farmers Market have a web site? If it doesn't, it should.

Larry Burns of Hanson Field Flower Farm is the market organizer for the Portland Farmers' Market. His phone is 883-5750.
And here's a link to my dispatches from the market (includes info about signing-up for the winter market): http://www.mainetoday.com/blogs/inasnap/cat_portland_farmers_market...
Hope this helps!
