Maple Lane Farm - Photo Gallery
		Maple Lane Farm is a working, small diversified farm. The farmhouse is well over 100 years old and the three story barn was a granite shed that was moved from Hallowell, Maine approximately sixty years ago. The bed and breakfast is located in the ell portion of the main house while the cottage is located in the restored milk house near the barn. We have about fifteen acres of fields, about one acre of gardens and orchards and about 35 acres of woods and trails. We have draft horses that sometimes are used for light farm work. We have Belted Galloway beef cows and Romney cross sheep. We have Aracauna chickens that lay pink or blue-green colored eggs. We use wind and solar power in order to reduce our dependence on fossil fuels that are produced from away. We grow many fruits and vegetables during the growing season to include : apples, corn, melons, tomatoes, cucumbers, beans, potatoes and asparagus.

	The Large Creatures These are the domesticated creatures that share the landscape and the goings on at Maple Lane Farm. These creatures help the farm by producing wool, meat or baby large creatures. Sometimes they help us bring up wood from the forest.
	The Small Creatures These are the domestic creatures that share the farmhouse and barn and are always present at Maple Lane Farm. These creatures bark, meow and cluck. These companions provide friendship but also hunt rodents, provide eggs and warn the family if there is trouble.
	The Very Small Creatures Very small creatures are needed on a farm in order to compost the soil, pollinate the flowers and to eat bothersome pests. Some of these creatures are beautiful and exotic, others are simply an unwanted annoyance.
	The Wildlife These are the wild creatures who share our dominion and sometimes stay and linger for awhile.
	The Perennial Gardens These are some of the perennial flowers and fruits and herbs that we grow.
	The Equipment These are the machines that help us when there is very hard work to be done like haying and plowing. These machines are old but can still run very well....most of the time!!!!
