The Maine Senior FarmShare Program is dedicated to supporting income-eligible older adults in Sanford, ME, by providing them with the opportunity to receive a free share of local produce, valued at $50, directly from Maine farmers throughout the growing season. Each spring, seniors can register with participating farmers to access this vital food assistance, although shares are limited and distributed on a first-come, first-served basis. This initiative not only fosters access to fresh, nutritious food but also strengthens connections between seniors and local agriculture, ensuring that our elderly community members can enjoy the benefits of local produce while promoting sustainable farming practices.
