UMaine Extension cited in BDN article on ready-made dinner services
The University of Maine Cooperative Extension was mentioned in a Bangor Daily News article about Maine-based call-ahead dinner services. The small businesses post a menu, customers order, and on a specific day, the freshly prepared dishes are delivered to the customer, who now has enough food for between one and three meals for the week, according to the article. Access to a commercial kitchen is one of the main hurdles for those who want to start a pre-made dinner service or other small-scale food business, the article states. However, several commercial kitchens are available to rent across Maine, and UMaine Extension also offers limited use of its commercial kitchen at its Bangor office, the BDN reported.
