New Vendor!
Lamplighter Farm and Creamery
.
Hello! Lamplighter Farm is a small 5 acre farm on the outskirts of Anson. I have been making goat and cow's milk cheese for a number of years and have recently decided to have my farm kitchen state inspected and sell to all of you!

Right now I partner with an amazing family in Troy, Maine that runs a small Jersy cow dairy/creamery farm. They supply us the grass-fed milk that is the best I have ever used for cheese making. A huge shout-out to Creamy Acres Creamery!

I have been raising a small Nubian goat herd, that will kid this spring (2025), and I will then include goat milk products for sale. Nubian goats are my favorite for sweet, mild-tasting milk and fabulous cheese and yogurt.

We strongly believe in strengthening the local food web, giving all who want to eat local and healthy a path to do so.
We strongly support regenerative farming. We care for our precious animals, they add to regenerating the land, and the land provides for us! Please feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns.

Raw goats milk will be available this spring upon request!

Angel Hair Spaghetti Squash - Small sized, great for 1-2 servings

Mashed Potato Acorn Squash: From the Kitchen Garden Seeds website, where we sourced the seeds from: "What a sneaky little Squash! It has pure white skin and off-white flesh that, when roasted and fluffed with a little butter, looks just like mashed Potatoes. While it might not taste just like it’s namesake, it is delicious, with fewer carbohydrates. "
