Find Local Food


The Eat Local Foods Coalition of Maine has been working on two maps to help increase access and availability of local foods:

The Maine Food Map Search for food in your area or add your local food business to the map!
New! The Maine Food, Farming and Fishing Resource Map
A place for food producers to connect with vendors, service providers and other resources.

Maine-made pasta 5 Replies

Hey all - I'm looking to buy local pasta in bulk (~20 lbs.), but don't know who, if anyone, produces it. Anyone know of any sources? Or, local producers of semolina flour? Thanks!
