Sanford

Romac offers pick-your-own apples, peaches, and pumpkins on a hilltop with views over southern Maine's lake country, plus cider donuts, free hayrides, a corn maze, and a 9-hole disc golf course. It's a full afternoon stop, not a quick produce run.

Cumberland

Longwoods Alpaca Farm raised a herd of alpacas for fiber on this Route 9 property from 2004 until 2016, when the last animals were sold; the farm itself changed hands the following year.

The 1794 meetinghouse still hosts public Sunday worship, and around 10,000 visitors tour the village each year.

North Yarmouth

Hansel's Orchard picks apples off trees that are roughly 80 years old, big and wide enough that the farm says stories get written about them. McIntosh comes in first in September, followed by Cortland and Macoun through October. Open 10 to 5 during harvest, with pre-picked bags left at the entrance stand after hours for latecomers.

New Gloucester

Acker's Acres Angoras is on Gloucester Hill Road in New Gloucester, a Cumberland County town also home to the Sabbathday Lake Shaker community. The name points to Angora fiber animals as the focus, though no farm store hours or products are confirmed online.

Kinney's Sugarhouse boils MOFGA-certified organic, kosher-certified maple syrup year-round, not just during sugaring season.

They open extra hours for Maine Maple Sunday every March.
