About Maine Senior FarmShare Program
The Maine Senior FarmShare Program in Berwick, ME, is dedicated to enhancing the health and well-being of income-eligible older adults by connecting them with fresh, local produce from nearby Maine farmers at no cost. This initiative provides valuable access to nutritious food during the growing season, allowing seniors to enjoy a $50 share of seasonal fruits and vegetables. Interested participants can sign up directly with participating farmers starting in April, but shares are limited and offered on a first-come, first-served basis. While meeting the eligibility criteria is essential, availability is not guaranteed, making timely registration crucial for obtaining a FarmShare. Through this program, we aim to support our community's older residents in accessing healthy food options and fostering connections with local agriculture.
