"Get
Real Maine" Campaign
A promotional campaign
sponsored by the
Maine Department of Agriculture,
Food and Rural Resources
|
|
 |
On television, in newspapers and through many events, our promotional campaign celebrates the rich bounty of Maine-grown, Maine-caught, Maine-made and Maine-raised products. From fresh fruits and vegetables to farm-raised salmon, venison and lamb, to unique and high-quality specialty foods. Our land also yields products that add beauty to our lives, such as wool, flowers and Christmas trees.
When you buy real Maine food and agricultural products, you not only get unmatched freshness, flavor and quality; you also help support our neighbors in Maine who produce them. Most are small, family-owned businesses, and they take lots of extra care to make sure you get the best.
