We’re at the end of the growing season in Maine.
And we’re reaping the harvest of a very rainy summer.
Not too bad.

Chasing the harvest.
Sunday, October 19th, 2008The harvest is in at Chase’s Daily in Belfast.
The Chase family runs this very popular restaurant/farm stand/art gallery and bakery in the center of Belfast. It’s both hippy and hip, with a bit of New York Soho flavor.
They grow most of the luscious fresh vegetables at their farm in Freedom. And they cook up very tasty vegetarian fare in this gorgeous brick building. Even non-vegens are happy to hang out here. You’ll find fine cheeses and coffee as well. They were recently featured in a story in the Boston Globe.
