Updates
Maine Harvest Bucks Here
for SNAP shopping
Maine Harvest Bucks are now available to SNAP users, who receive a 100% match for any SNAP purchases to buy fruits, vegetables and vegetable seedlings. Pick up your Snap tokens (green) at the info booth , and get the same amount in red tokens (Harvest Bucks) for your fresh fruits and veg. All at the info table. It's open 8:30 to 10. We'll keep you posted on any changes.
Vendor Payment
We no longer offer tokens to non SNAP credit and debit card users, but if you have leftover tokens you can use them. Most
vendors have credit and debit card capacity . Bring some cash, or a check, for the few who don't - small bills make it easier.
Double check with vendors to see what method they prefer.

From our vendors

Sales, Seasonal, Specials
Amy at
Old Narrow Gauge
powers on with her beautifully flavored, versatile syrups: new crops of elderflower and strawberry are now ready.. She's got a new batch of dill relish as well.
Stop at
Mana Medicinals
and pick out a refreshing herbal blend for summery iced teas. Ruby Tea offers support for immune systems, and stamina while you sip..
Appleton
is well stocked with Grilloumi and Labneh now, and that popular Basil marinated Chevre, which MUST be preordered.

Yearning for a new basket - take your pick at Mindful Gardens

Drew at Hahns End, notes that a customer recently referenced his cheese in Down East magazine. Tracking it down, I was happy, as you surely will be, to see that Appleton Creamery, Fuzzy Udder, and Hahn's End ALL are in the top 10 of a tasting discussed in April/May 2017. Go to
Goranson
has art quality green and purple peppers, ready to roast and slice. Their young beets are lovley too, especially those greens, think salad, light summer soups. and those alluring tomatoes, well, just get 'em.
|
Fresh Lavender, toss it under your pillow and rest well. Thank you Tarbox
|
Stewart & Reid
has some nice new Parmesan sticks-fat and cheesy. Look for his chocolate chip peanut butter cookies for melt in your mouth delight.
At Jyang_Lee,
Angela is ready with her great for lunch sesame noodles and spring rolls. Try those veggie dumplings in a light broth for a fine little supper.
Tarbox
has broccolini and young broccoli - Save the leaves on both and serve up in salad or soups - even roast for a minute or two.
And nice celery with perfect leaves - way to spark a summer salad.

Friendly Backyard Bouquets from MicroMainea
Simply made and simply delicious -
Alchimia's
Torta - traditional small cakes, made with seasonal ingredients, fresh or preserved - just right for a small dinner- get 2 and do a tasting.
Robin at
Chase
is back with her signature fresh donuts-grab a package of chocolate, maybe molasses, to keep all kids large and small happy for the week. Try the glazed and jelly too, sold individually (thank the goddess of healthy indulgence)
The ground chicken from
Mainely Poultry
has just enough chunk to bulk out a smashing burger - watch it grab that cheese and ooze into the fresh tomato.home it in a crispy bulkie roll from
Borealis!
