Hay Field

Rock Island Farm, Orono, Maine (near Bangor)

Description Rock Island Farm is a small family farm (62 acres) located on Main Street (Rt 2) in Orono, just north of Veazie and Bangor, and not far from Interstate 95. We produce hay and a small amount of vegetables. We also try to maintain some field as bird nesting habitat for bobolinks (off-site link).

The farm name. Someone took great care years ago to clear the hayfield of rocks, leaving some piled in the middle of the field. Shrubs grew over the pile, and the previous owner called this spot Rock Island.

Grass hay (square bales). We retired from baling hay in 2022. Thanks very much to everyone who has bought hay from us in the past.
