The Maine Senior FarmShare Program in Wiscasset, ME, is dedicated to supporting income-eligible older adults by offering them a free share of fresh, local produce valued at $50, directly sourced from Maine farmers during the growing season. This initiative not only enhances the health and wellness of our seniors by providing access to nutritious food, but it also fosters connections to local agriculture. Starting each April, seniors can sign up directly with participating farmers, but it's important to act quickly, as shares are limited and distributed on a first-come, first-served basis. While meeting the eligibility criteria is essential, it does not guarantee a FarmShare, underscoring the program's commitment to address the urgent need for food assistance among our senior population.
