In 2020, MOFGA and Maine Farmland Trust began to produce Market Reports, for the purpose of supporting farmer and buyer communication and creating clarity in a rapidly changing market due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2021, the two organizations are again collaboratively producing Market Reports for the same purpose and providing a platform for data and information sharing to enhance business and marketing decisions. Observations are collected biweekly from the same group of wholesale buyers and diversified farmers in Maine, and synthesized with relevant links to national trends in produce supply and demand.

The Reports are posted on a Google Group platform, which allows readers/subscribers to interact and connect in real time and communicate about supply or demand needs and relevant thoughts and perspectives. The information in the Reports is solely for informational and observational purposes.

To subscribe to the Maine Produce Market Report, click on this link  and look for the “Ask to Join” button near the top center of the page –click that button, fill in the boxes, and then click “Ask to join.” We will accept your request as soon as we are able.

Market Reports from 2020 are available by request. Please contact MOFGA’s Organic Marketing & Business Specialist Nicolas Lindholm for details.
