Gift shop and wreaths in the barn
The post-and-beam barn holds a gift shop with the farm’s own products, including maple syrup, honey, jams, scrubs and soaps, along with wreaths, centerpieces and gifts made by local artists. The farm says ten local consigners sell in the barn, and it names Banny Bread among its products.
Regular gift-shop hours begin Friday, November 6: Friday 10am to 4pm, and Saturday and Sunday 9am to 4pm, as the farm announced on Facebook. Its website footer still shows an earlier line, open November 1, 10am to 3pm, with pop-up openings through November. Wreaths are for sale from November 6, and the farm has not published a wreath price. The farm has not said how long the regular hours run.
Wreath-making classes and the December 3 workshop day
The farm teaches wreath making to private groups of 3 or more, with all materials included, light holiday treats and non-alcoholic drinks (you may bring your own beverage). A class takes about 90 minutes to 2 hours depending on group size, and it suits ages 10 and up. Classes are $55 per person, with 10% off for groups of 4 or more.
To schedule, email the farm with the days and times that suit you; the earlier in the season you ask, the better. Adding a phone number lets the organizer call you. On Thursday, December 3 the farm runs a traditional workshop day with individual 90-minute sessions through the day, booked by email. The events page prints a single price line for all classes, $55 per person.

School and group programs, snowshoe tours and the barn
The farm hosts education programs on snowshoeing, maple syrup, beekeeping, tree farming and an Elf Trail Hike for school groups, homeschool groups and adult groups, with a barn classroom. Guided snowshoe tours run from 30 minutes to two hours on the farm’s trails and finish with hot cocoa and a sweet treat in the barn. These are booked by email, are for groups, and have no published prices.
The farm also lists the barn for weddings of up to 50 guests and offers photography sessions with access to its fields, barn, pond and gardens. These are separate bookable services, and the farm gives no prices for them.
Guest quarters and the community markets are separate
The farm lists a one-bedroom guest apartment through Airbnb, with a kitchen, queen bed, laundry, a private deck and a fire pit. The farm’s page says to call for availability or book through Airbnb, and gives no rate.
The farm also hosts free community markets on the last Sunday of each month from May through September, with 30 or more vendors, children’s activities, live music and food. This year’s markets have ended, and the farm plans them again next year.

The farm is at 486 Monroe Road, about 7 miles from the center of Winterport Village, 3 miles from the center of Monroe Village and 8 miles from Hampden. Look for the farm’s sign with its signature “W” and an evergreen tree in the middle.
