Goranson Farm Goranson Farm is owned and operated by Jan Goranson, Rob Johanson, and their sons Carl and Goran, with superhuman help from their dedicated farm crew.

Goranson Farm is a second- and third-generation certified organic vegetable farm dedicated to providing nutrient-dense food to the local community and stewarding historic farmland on the banks of Merrrymeeting Bay. Jan's father and mother, Everett and Geneva, had farmed high-quality potatoes on this land since the 1960's, and their parents were farmers in northern Aroostook County. For the last 30 years, Jan and Rob have worked to maintain this unique family farm and preserve the irreplaceable open space along Merrymeeting Bay. All year round, we are lucky to provide the healthiest, freshest produce possible to our market and wholesale customers, informed stewardship to over 100 acres of land, and full-time employment in our rural town. By keeping some of the best agricultural land in Maine growing MOFGA-certified organic vegetables, strawberries, and cut flowers, everyone in the community benefits.

Big thanks to all who came out to market yesterday! It is so fulfilling to see all the food we’ve been hauling out of the field, through the barn, into trucks, and out onto tables finally get chosen and taken home :) It’s fun to imagine hundreds of you all cutting into the same veggies in your kitchens when we finally get a chance to stop and do some cooking of our own. Thank you for being part of this farm, one good supper at a time!
If you’d like to keep it up all through the winter, you can join our Winter CSA Share. You’ll get a big box of all the winter staples once a month and save a few bucks in the process. It’s $350 for all six months of Maine winter, November through April. Pickups are on the second Saturday in Dresden, Portland, and Boothbay, and on the following Tuesday in Damariscotta. We mix up a well-balanced share of our certified organic storage crops plus fresh greens when possible. You can pay by check at the farm stand or when we see you at market this week. Come ask us about it! The first pickup is November 14th.

Last week we finished harvesting the sweet potatoes, which meant it was time to glean off the second-quality tubers that we leave behind in the field. For the last four years, Mike has organized the first big glean as a memorial day for our friend Maria Escobar, who passed around harvest time in 2022. She loved sweet potatoes and saving every little scrap of anything that might be useful. This year’s Maria Glean netted about 1500 lbs of food that will go out to the food bank and soup kitchens. Thank you Mike for keeping us accountable to joy and celebration. Mike Lynch

Nice big russets arose from the dust in the Wild West field today thanks to these cowboys! Devon stole the show with brilliant driving. He’s a regular tractor jockey around these parts, but this was his first day ever operating our not-so-simple digger. Yeehaw!

It’s 3:54 AM, do you know where your farmer is? I do! She’s coming up from the barn, having just finished loading the box truck with everything that’s going to Portland Maine Farmers’ Market this morning. She’ll stop in the house for her coffee and to tell the dog to go back to bed, zip down 295, stopping to make wholesale deliveries along the way, and arrive in Deering Oaks about 5:00, unloading the tents and totes, and start setting up as her helpers arrive. So go get dressed! Time for you to go to market, too! Portland Maine Farmers’ Market is every Wednesday morning in Deering Oaks through November 25th!
