Hosted by Land for Good and MFT, the conference is for farm seekers, retiring farmers, land owners & service providers. This year, the conference began with some stories from the field. Stacy Brenner, of Broadturn Farm in Scarborough, and BrennaMae Thomas Googins, of Patch Farm in Denmark, shared stories from their field.
No matter how many seasons they have been with their soil, farmers develop a strong connection with their land. For each farmer, this relationship is unique and therefore, manifests differently into the food we eat and the communities we live in. MFT will host three storytellers for live event at the Maine Historical Society to explore these relationships. The yearlong exhibitions, Maine Eats: The Food Revolution Starts Here, will be open and available for viewing. Light, local food will be served after the program.
Meet our storytellers:
Jan Goranson, Goranson Farm
John Bunker, Maine Heritage Orchard and Super Chilly Farm
Sarah Loftus, Northeast Archaeology Research Center
