Farmers unite to establish large online market for all of central Maine
Directly with farmers, Central Maine FarmDrop has worked to create something new for Maine’s local food network. With minimal transportation, this online marketplace makes it possible for farmers to get their product to the next county within a half-hour drive. They endeavor to bring the largest online farmers’ market to Maine to make it possible for communities to buy and sell, and trade year-round, sharing the most nutritious, safe, and delicious foods available, restoring our place-based culture, and building food sovereignty for everyone.
Central Maine FarmDrop provides additional farm income, creates access to fresh food, and ensures small farm viability through smart, data-driven, technology-powered business planning. Currently providing 8 pick-up locations for communities to obtain local food, ranging from Hampden to Waterville to Lincolnville, and always adding new locations for your convenience. Along with food access, each location supports nonprofits that prevent food waste and feed hungry families.
This farmers’ coalition is dedicated to preserving the knowledge and sustainable stewardship of rural landscapes by making it more convenient to choose the extraordinary local food being produced in Maine’s foodsheds.
