Does the Portland Farmers Market have a web site? If it doesn't, it should.
It has already been open for two Saturdays with lots of seedlings, flowers, and some early veggies including fiddleheads and asparagus!

locating farmland
I am trying to locate a farm that is for sale in the triangle area of Farmington, Lewiston and Portland, that is about an hour inland from the coast. I am looking for a minium of 10 acres with a house on the property that does not need to be habitable. Water needs to be abundant and pure. My goal is to start a biodynamic farm and wellness center. A vision statement about the farm and wellness center can be furnished upon request. Feel free to e-mail me if you have any ideas or possible leads to… Continue

- Hi Liz,
Have you already tried contacting Maine Farmland Trust in your search for a farm? They have a farmlink program that you might want to look at: http://www.mainefarmlandtrust.org/farmlink.html
Hope you are well,
Alison

I am from Mashpee, too! However, I now live in Rockport, ME and have been in Maine for the last 5 years. I would try Little Alaska Farm in Wales. It is 45 minutes North of Portland, but well worth the trip...especially if you pack a whole cooler full of meat, since we both know Cape Cod is lacking compared to Maine. That is where I have gotten my turkey the last three years and they may have extra, even short notice. Leon, the butcher, can help you out. Good luck!

- You guys wont believe how hard it is to find a fresh really free-ranged turkey down here. Looks like I am going to have to buy a sheltons organic frozen one...bummer. I will be in Portland next weekend for appointments. Any one know of farmers who might be processing that weekend and have some for sale? Free ranged please! Thanks, Liz
