The Maine Senior FarmShare Program is dedicated to enhancing the well-being of income-eligible older adults in Orono, ME, by providing access to fresh, local produce through a valuable initiative where participants receive a share worth $50 at no cost. This program connects seniors directly with local Maine farmers during the growing season, fostering community ties while ensuring that our seniors enjoy nutritious, seasonal fruits and vegetables. Enrollment begins each April, and shares are limited, offered on a first-come, first-served basis. Meeting the eligibility requirements is necessary, but please note that it does not guarantee a FarmShare, reflecting the commitment to supporting as many seniors as possible while maintaining the program’s integrity and sustainability.
