BDN features Black Bear Food Guild
The Bangor Daily News highlighted University of Maine students Ian MacLellan, Parker Anderson, Kameron Haines and Madison Lawler, who are operating this season’s Black Bear Food Guild — an organic vegetable farm and community share agriculture (CSA) program at Rogers Farm. “I want to run my own farm one day, and this is a really great experience to see what works and what doesn’t,” MacLellan said. “The benefit is really a culmination of the experience and the chance to be involved in something awesome like this that offers organic food at pretty reasonable prices.” The program is filling about 65 shares of varying sizes, with pickups twice a week, according to the article. Through the guild, customers can purchase a quarter-share for $175, a half-share for $325 and a share for $500.
