Orono Farmers Market

Visit the Orono Farmers' Market at the University Steam Plant Parking Lot on College Avenue in Orono, Maine. The market is located between College Avenue and the Stillwater River, less than a mile north of downtown Orono. Now in its twentieth year, the 2013 Orono Farmers' Market is one of Maine's larger markets with over twenty-five members offering a wide range of locally produced foods on Saturday mornings and Tuesday afternoons, open rain or shine. As in most other farmers' markets in Maine, all of the goods for sale must be the result of the vendor's own effort. And remember, you make a difference each time you support a local farmer. Each year our market is open every Saturday Morning from 8 am–Noon from the first Saturday in May until the Saturday before Thanksgiving, and Tuesday afternoon from 2–5:30 pm from the fourth Tuesday in June until the last Tuesday in October. The Winter Market is open on the second and fourth Saturdays of each month from December through mid-May (UMO Commencement), from 9am to Noon. It is held in the downtown Orono parking lot, between Pine and Mill streets.
