UMaine Extension video of Sabattus couple featured on BDN
The Bangor Daily News reported on a University of Maine Cooperative Extension video featuring Ed and Pat Jillson, owners of Jillson’s Farm & Sugarhouse in Sabattus. The Jillsons have been married nearly six decades, and have been farming for several decades — opening their first vegetable stand in 1966, according to the article. UMaine Extension created the video of last year’s Maine Maple Sunday to bring consumers closer to farmers and producers, to better showcase what’s important to them and how they make decisions behind the scenes, the article states. UMaine Extension plans to release more videos as part of a series called “Growing Maine.”
