Bangor is planning a local foods show on Veterans Day at Bass Park and is looking for vendors to participate.
This is from the linked Bangor Daily article: “Organizer Judi Perkins, who helped Dyer bring back the Bangor Garden Show last year, is on board and will be actively courting farmers and vendors, including Maine wineries and breweries.”
Maine's 2011 Dairy Princesses at the Ag Trade Show Commissioner's Luncheon
Our January meeting took place on the first day of the Maine Agricultural Trade Show, first thing in the morning. The Guild discussed upcoming workshops (stay tuned for announcements right here about April and/or May workshop dates), organizing around the 2011 ACS Conference in Montreal, reducing red tape as a priority of State Government with the new executive and legislative branches, and novel ways to partner with retailers. Hal Prince and Cathie Cotton were there from the Dept. of Quality Assurance, and they filled us in on the changes that have been going on in their departments, as well as what may not be changing.
