The Maine Senior FarmShare Program in Oakland, ME, is dedicated to enhancing the lives of income-eligible older adults by connecting them with local farmers and providing access to fresh produce at no cost. Each participant receives a share of local produce valued at $50, fostering a healthy diet and supporting Maine’s agricultural community. Seniors can sign up directly with participating farmers starting in April, but shares are available on a first come, first served basis, emphasizing the importance of timely registration. This program not only aims to nourish our senior population but also strengthens the bond between generations and local agriculture.
