Maine’s Hobby Farm Tradition

Maine is home to a vibrant tradition of small, family-run farms, many under 80 acres, which have shaped the state’s rural character for centuries. These farms, often interwoven with forests, pastures, and wetlands, are much more than working landscapes—they are a way of life.

At Moment’s Peace Farm, we embrace this heritage by blending traditional methods with modern sustainability practices. From our forest management plan to our solar-powered farmhouse, we reflect a balance between honoring the past and innovating for the future.

Small farms like ours are vital to Maine’s local economy, community food systems, and cultural identity. They provide fresh, local food while fostering a sense of connection—to the land, to history, and to one another. Whether you’re visiting us to experience this lifestyle or simply to enjoy its fruits, we invite you to become part of this enduring legacy.
