About Maine Senior FarmShare Program
The Maine Senior FarmShare Program is dedicated to enhancing the well-being of income-eligible older adults in Augusta, ME, by connecting them with fresh, local produce from Maine farmers at no cost. Each participant receives a share valued at $50 during the growing season, ensuring seniors have access to nutritious food options that support their health and independence. Enrollment starts in April, and participants can sign up directly with local farmers, but shares are limited and available on a first-come, first-served basis. Meeting the eligibility criteria does not guarantee a FarmShare, but the program aims to foster community and wellness through locally sourced food assistance for seniors in need.
