Farmers markets offer delicious, high-quality, locally grown foods harvested fresh and sold direct to you by farmers. Markets are located throughout the region, each offering a unique blend of personalities and products. Spring salad greens and strawberries in May and June, wild Maine blueberries and raspberries at the height of summer, garlic and squash in September. You'll also find live music, hula-hoopers, kid's games, and an array of hand crafts. Pickles, jams, seedlings, yarn, flowers, bacon, baked goods and cheese...you'll have to visit more than one to enjoy all the fresh flavors of DownEast Acadia!
