Love the work that Long Cove Sea Farm is doing researching sustainable plastic-free materials for aquaculture operations.
Farmdrop, the Blue Hill local food connection. The website offers Saturday to Wednesday online access to shopping from farmers and fishermen across the region.

GSA is partnering with FarmDrop.us to support local food systems on the Blue Hill Peninsula. Started in Blue Hill 6 years ago, FarmDrop is an online farmers’ market where customers can select local fresh products from many different producers, and adopt a simple weekly pick-up system.
Blue Hill FarmDrop’s mission is to support student education around local food systems, entrepreneurship, and community food access. GSA families, staff and friends are invited to participate by adopting the weekly order cycle at FarmDrop. Ordering pauses from Wednesday 10am to Thursday 5pm, during which time orders are getting aggregated and prepared for customers. Orders are ready for pick-up Thursday 2-5pm Fairwinds. Students, GSA Families, & Friends can pick up at GSA Cafeteria Thursdays 2-3pm, and stay to enjoy some Music and Coffee and if lucky get to meet some of the farmers. Every time a community member orders on FarmDrop, 10% gets added to their cart (max $10), which will go towards supporting school lunch access and education programs. For every $50 spent on FarmDrop customers are supporting 1 student lunch at GSA.
Across Maine, FarmDrop partners with three other communities to deliver the FarmDrop experience to Mount Desert Island, Unity, and Portland, where they also support student and community food security. For any questions about FarmDrop, please be in touch with Hannah Semler [email protected] of FarmDrop.us, or contact Rob Cushman [email protected] at George Stevens Academy, for Blue Hill FarmDrop.
