The farmers' market will be open 10 am-1 pm, and Western Maine Market orders will be available for pick-up there 11 am-1 pm. Also starting next week, all of our deliveries will be about 2 hours later than during our winter schedule, with deliveries to Kingfield closer to 3 pm and to Phillps closer to 4 pm May through October.
The Fiddlehead Festival will be held Saturday the 2nd of May on the UMF campus, 10am-3pm. It will take the place of the regular Saturday Farmington Farmers' Market and will serve as a pick-up location option for WMM orders.
