The Back 40 Farm Market
Every trip to Smyrna Mills feels like a little treasure hunt, and The Back 40 Farm Market is the heartbeat of it. This family-run stop is where honey shares the spotlight with jams, syrups, and a parade of farm-fresh produce that locals tout as the real deal. Honey here is part of the local lineup, but the real charm is the mix: a sturdy pantry of canned goods, plus jars of strawberry jam and relishes that taste like summer. The Amish-made soaps, candles, and handwoven baskets tucked among the stalls add a craft-cool contrast you don’t see at every market. Folks travel miles for the donuts, the hand pies, and the overall sense that you’re stepping into a place that cares about real food and real people. Friendly staff, clean aisles, and prices that won’t bust your budget. If you’re in Maine, Smyrna Mills is the stop for farm-fresh reliability.
