This event is all about honoring the thriving farm culture that makes Maine so special. Who better to partner with than the Cumberland Farmer’s Club, ambassadors for agriculture since 1875! We so appreciate their agreeing to make the fairgrounds the heart of this community gathering. And we are happy to share the Farmer’s Club has donated 8 Day passes to the Fair in September for the raffle.

Look for MaineLove at the finish line.

Nestled amidst the lush forests, crystal clear lakes, and endless coastlines, Maine captures the hearts of all who visit. Inspired by this profound connection, mainelove emerged from a dedicated team of 12th-generation Mainers and newcomers who fell for the state's natural beauty and decided to celebrate it by establishing a business. At the heart of Maine’s appeal lies Sebago Lake, an infinitely renewable source of some of the cleanest water on the planet.

The craft beer brewing community in Maine saw an opportunity: utilizing their idle facilities to run a water line when not producing beer. Facing the global single-use plastic crisis, the team opted for sustainable aluminum cans to package their water, prioritizing the health of people and the planet.

Clean, simple and sustainable, mainelove is the way water should be.

Look for owner Danielle Root before and after the race for a massage!

Since the day we opened our doors in 2004, we have loved being Falmouth's first choice for a special night out, grabbing a booth after little league, watching the Pats win, or playing board games over nachos to pass the time on a snow day.

What makes us unique is our wide-ranging menu that has something for everyone:

Offering Maine must-haves like the famous Fried Haddock Sandwich, or something a little fancier when you're in the mood, and kids favorites that are sure to please.

Our menu is ever-changing and features locally sourced products.

We cherish the families we serve: the kids we've watched grow, the celebrations we've hosted, and the community we share.

Welcome to Sunflower Farm - where all the romance of farm life is still very much a reality. Looking for delicious local cheese made in small daily batches? You have come to the right place. May-October, our feta, chevre, yogurt, caramels, fudge, truffles and cajeta are available in our self serve farm shop. Come check out what is available, then relax a bit and watch the goats grazing in the field.

There are lots of hot words in the sustainable food movement. Some mean very different things depending on who is using them and for what purpose, but for us, “local” dairy products are unique because each bite is intimately connected to the way the animals at our farm live. Even a town over, the goats are eating different grass, enjoying a different breeze, their milk is not from Claire and Radish and Cinnamon. We find great joy in sharing our lovely goats with visitors so that when they eat our chèvre or feta or yogurt or caramels, they taste even better because they are remembering a sunny summer day in the field with our herd. Hopefully you can taste the love.
