Great Maine Apple Day | Maine Organic Farmers and Gardeners
Sponsored by MOFGA and Fedco Trees.
Admission free / optional donation. This event will be mostly outside, with some workshops taking place indoors at MOFGA’s Common Ground Education Center in Unity, Maine.
Fall fruit season is here! Join us at MOFGA for a day of celebration of apples & other delicious tree fruit. There will be guided tours of the Maine Heritage Orchard, workshops, cider pressing & help identifying ‘mystery’ apples by our Apple Identification team.
We’ll also have apple art activities going on all afternoon, face painting, and a “print-your-own-bandana” station in support of the Maine Heritage Orchard between 12 & 2pm!
Grab a treat from Senza Scarpe farm bakery or some organic cheese to eat with your apples from Balfour Farm! Our friends at Pressed for Cider will be selling bottled cider & warm spiced cider (and sharing information about their custom apple pressing services, too.)
We’re also looking for volunteers! See available volunteer shifts here. We would also love to reduce the impact of this event in terms of greenhouse gas emissions from driving – if you can offer a ride to others attending, or would like to ride with somebody else, go here.
