Maine Senior FarmShare Program Information
The Maine Senior FarmShare Program entitles eligible seniors to
receive a FarmShare ($50 worth) of first quality, fresh, local produce
from a Maine farm for a core 8-week period during the growing season.
Seniors sign up directly with a participating farmer each year in April.
Different farms participating in the Senior FarmShare program offer
different types of fruits and vegetables. You should check with the
farmer before signing up to be sure the farm's offerings will meet your
needs. The fruits and vegetables will be available at different times
during the growing season.

If you are uncertain about your eligibility to participate, you should
contact the Area Agency on Aging by calling the ELDERS-1 toll-free
number at 1-877-353-3771.
