Farmers Markets in Maine

Bangor European Farmers' Market

Bangor, ME

The Bangor European Farmers' Market meets year-round on Saturdays, 9 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., at 117 Buck Street. A market that runs straight through the Maine winter is unusual — most outdoor markets in the Bangor area close after the fall harvest and don't reopen until spring.

Bar Harbor Eden Farmers Market

The Bar Harbor Eden Farmers' Market sets up Sundays, 9 a.m. to noon, in the YMCA lot on Park Street, mid-May through October. The name nods to history: Bar Harbor was incorporated as the town of Eden in 1796 and wasn't renamed Bar Harbor until 1918.

Bridgton Farmers' Market

Bridgton Farmers' Market sets up Saturdays, 8 a.m. to noon, on Depot Street from May through October. Bridgton anchors Maine's Lakes Region, and the market's May-to-October run lines up with the area's peak lake-and-camp tourist season.

Calais Farmers' Market

Calais, ME

Calais Farmers' Market sets up Tuesdays, 11 a.m. to 1 p.m., late June through mid-October, in the town's market square near the St. Croix River — the same river that forms the international border with Canada. Vendors sell produce, flowers, baked goods, crafts, blueberries, maple syrup, preserves, and eggs, and the market accepts WIC.

Crown O'Maine Organic Cooperative

Vassalboro, ME

Crown O'Maine Organic Cooperative is a farmer-owned food hub based in Vassalboro that aggregates and distributes organic, Maine-grown produce, meat, and dairy to retailers, restaurants, and institutions statewide. It exists to solve a problem small organic farms can't solve alone: getting product to buyers who want a full truck, not one farm's harvest. Member farms share the distribution costs and logistics under the cooperative model.

Cultivating Community

Portland, ME

Cultivating Community runs two farms supporting 60 families and manages community garden plots where more than 485 people grow their own food each year in the Portland area. The nonprofit paid 50 young people through leadership internships and brought garden-based lessons to about 3,000 elementary students. In 2024 it delivered $190,000 worth of culturally specific crops to food pantries and matched $187,000 in SNAP/EBT and WIC benefits through its food access programs.

Daybreak Growers Alliance

Unity, ME

Daybreak Growers Alliance aggregates food from more than 100 Maine farms into weekly boxes delivered across the state. Customers pick their own mix or take the Farmers' Choice box, pre-assembled by the growers themselves, with add-on subscriptions for eggs, bread, flowers, and more. The cooperative accepts SNAP/EBT and runs a Farm Fresh Rewards discount, plus a Give a Box program that matches paid boxes with donated ones for food-insecure households.

Downtown Waterville Winter Farmers' Market

Waterville, ME

Ellsworth Farmers' Market

Ellsworth, ME

Ellsworth Farmers' Market runs Saturdays, 9:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., May through mid-November, with an organic-leaning vendor list selling vegetables, eggs, cheese, granola, baked goods, pastry, pie, bread, and jam. Ellsworth sits on the Route 1 approach to Mount Desert Island, catching both local shoppers and Acadia-bound traffic.

Farmers' Market at Mill Park

The Farmers' Market at Mill Park runs May through October along the Kennebec River in Augusta, afternoons from 2 to 6 p.m. Augusta also runs a separate winter market at an indoor location once the Mill Park season ends in the fall.

Fork Food Lab

South Portland, ME

Fork Food Lab rents commercial kitchen space and processing equipment to food entrepreneurs who aren't ready to build their own facility. The South Portland space runs over 30,000 square feet and currently supports more than 80 member businesses, from bakers to sauce makers, at different membership tiers. It's Maine's only nonprofit food business incubator of its kind, built to get small food businesses past the commercial-kitchen bottleneck.

Hampden Farmers' Market

Hampden Winter Farmers' Market

Hampden, ME

Hampden's winter market meets Fridays, 2 to 5:30 p.m., November through April, at the Kiwanis Civic Center — an indoor stop that runs once the town's warm-weather market schedule tightens for the season.

Harvesting Good

Auburn, ME

Harvesting Good freezes vegetables at peak ripeness and distributes them to grocery stores, schools, hospitals, and senior centers across the Northeast. It runs as a subsidiary of Good Shepherd Food Bank of Maine, built to give regional farmers a processing outlet when their harvest outpaces the fresh market. The operation fills a gap most small Northeast farms hit every year: too much produce, too short a fresh-sale window.

Madison Farmers' Market

Madison Farmers' Market sets up in Main Street Park, across from Skowhegan Savings Bank, in this Somerset County mill town on the Kennebec River. No independently verifiable schedule or vendor details turned up online beyond the address on file.

Peak Season Produce

Freedom, ME

Peak Season Produce is based in Freedom, a small Waldo County town near Unity and the Daybreak Growers Alliance food hub. The name signals a straightforward focus: produce sold at the height of its season rather than shipped in from elsewhere.

Poland Farmers Market

Portland Farmers' Market

Deering Oaks Park Portland, ME

Preble Street Food Security Hub

South Portland, ME

Preble Street is Portland's longtime anti-hunger and anti-poverty nonprofit, running soup kitchen, shelter, and resource programs across the city. This listing is for its Food Security Hub site on Darling Avenue in South Portland, part of the same food-industry corridor as Fork Food Lab next door.

Presque Isle, ME

Presque Isle Farmers' Market runs Saturdays, 8:30 a.m. to 12:30 p.m., mid-May through early October, in Aroostook County's largest city. Vendors set up along Riverside Street — fitting, since "presque isle" is French for "almost an island."

Presque Isle Riverside Public Market

Presque Isle, ME

Presque Isle Riverside Public Market runs Saturdays along Riverside Drive and accepts SNAP, Maine Harvest Bucks, and the Maine Senior FarmShare program for older adults — three separate food-access programs stacked at one market table, with an info booth handling card and benefit transactions on site.

Saco Farmers' and Artisans' Market

Saco, ME

Saco Farmers' and Artisans' Market sets up in the Saco Valley Shopping Center lot on Route 1, pairing produce vendors with local craftspeople rather than running as a produce-only market — the split focus is built right into the name. It's part of southern Maine's seasonal market circuit, running through the growing season rather than staying open year-round.

Saco River Market

Saco, ME

Saco River Market sits on Main Street in downtown Saco, a separate listing from the open-air Farmers' and Artisans' Market held across town at the Saco Valley Shopping Center. No vendor list, products, or hours turned up in a search.

York, ME

The Gateway York Farmers' Market sets up in the lot behind the Greater York Region Chamber of Commerce on Stonewall Lane, just off Route 1 near the York town line — an easy stop for visitors already headed to the beaches or the outlets. A market by this name and address is also listed separately as York Gateway Farmers' Market.

United Farmers Market of Maine

United Farmers Market of Maine is based at 18 Spring Street in Belfast, an address with no shopping-center or parking-lot descriptor, suggesting an indoor building rather than an outdoor tent market.
