Military veteran farm field day slated at Sebago Lake Ranch

U.S. Army veteran Ben Hartwell, owner and operator of Sebago Lake Ranch, will host a free military veteran farm field day from 9 a.m. to 1 p.m. Saturday, June 18, at 39 Hardy Bridge Road, Gorham.

Hartwell raises grass-fed beef cattle. The Farmer Veteran Coalition of Maine and Maine AgrAbility are sponsoring the event; the purpose is for current and prospective farmers to gain knowledge and build skills related to beef cattle handling and fencing.
