Gardeners to the public since 1995.

Snakeroot Organic Farm is a MOFGA certified organic farm with five acres of gardens producing mixed vegetables, fruits, perennials and herbs. We also operate a 300 tap maple sugarbush and six greenhouses for producing seedlings and early and late vegetables. Tom and Lois have been farming together since 1990, and have over 40 years combined experience growing organically in Maine. Our partners Jack and Coco joined us in 2006 and are rapidly becoming invaluable to the farm's operation.

Learn all you wanted to know about our farm (and more!) by using the menu on the left. We believe it is important not only to let the public know in detail how we farm, but to be an information resource to other farms, new or not so new. Over the years we have learned a tremendous amount from others and this is one way we can repay our debt to the agricultural community at large.

We have been building this website since 1998, each year adding pages and photos during the (relatively) less busy winter months. Today, there are over 50 pages included here. We have found that this website performs three functions: 1) Promotion of our farm and its products; 2) Providing information and education to anyone interested in growing on a small scale; and 3) A journal of how the farm has developed over the years—the website has become our primary way or recording this for our own records.

Internet Explorer users: Close one menu before opening another, otherwise the menu will freeze. If it does, simply refresh the page. Even better: upgrade your browser to Firefox, Opera or Safari!
