Open Farm Day in Maine is coming this weekend! There are 16 farms in York County participating in this year’s annual event.

Among the many other activities, visitors will also be able to harvest garlic and test a batch of sour pickles at [2] Snell Family Farm in Buxton, pet the animals at [3] Wright’s Haven Farm in Limington, and see a butter-making demonstration by [4] Kate’s Homemade Butter at Leary Farm in Saco:
