3rd Annual Maple Crest Farm Fundraiser for Cancer Care of Maine
Looking for a fun out in the country family event to do this weekend?
And an event with deep personal meaning for the hosts.
This Saturday Maple Crest Farms in Hermon with host the 3rd annual fundraising event for Cancer Care of Maine.
The reason the 'Shearing for a Cure' fundraiser is for Cancer Care of Maine in Brewer, is all the organizers of the event have a connection through cancer.
Maple Crest Farms is owned by Garrett and Trisha Martin.
When Maple Crest Farm owner Trisha was in remission in 2016 she decided she wanted a donkey. And thought
Why stop at one, or two.
She adopted four donkeys.
And a mule.
And that was the beginning of what is now a farm full of animals and most all of them are rescued animals.
This Saturday you are welcome to bring the family and interact with the animals. They love selfies. The event is free and open to all.
If you will, please consider a cash donation which will go to Cancer Care of Maine. You can give when you arrive at the event. Think of it as an 'at the door' donation.
And yes, there will be a sheep shearing competition. This is their 5th year, and 3rd at Maple Crest Farm with this demonstration.
Also Fiber Arts vendors will be in attendance.
Side note, want a break from everything, go for a short stroll and enjoy all the flowers.
When it is time to eat Freshie's Wood Fired Pizza (Formerly Pompei's) will be there. So will Pappa's Smoke House Food Truck. And Stone Fox Creamery too.
Demonstrations and family-friendly events between 9 a.m. and 5 p.m. at Maple Crest Farm, located at 2718 Union Street in Hermon.
And all for a great cause.
