Celebrating the People

Aroostook County’s heritage is an interwoven tapestry of threads of farms and families. We have interviewed a variety of individuals associated with the industry, including growers and their families, the small farmer to the large farm corporations, and those who have quietly but steadily played a role in the foundation of Aroostook County. Every individual we interviewed spoke from the heart and was genuinely honored to have their story told.

Here are their stories. We hope they touch you as they have touched us.   Contact us if you have a story to share…
