Frith Farm is a no-till, no-pesticide, tractor-free farm located in Scarborough, Maine. Motivated more by idealism than experience, Daniel Mays started Frith Farm in November, 2010. Drawn by Maine's food culture and support for local agriculture, Daniel purchased a 14-acre piece of land in Scarborough. The land was protected and made affordable through an agricultural conservation easement put in place by Maine Farmland Trust and the Scarborough Land Trust when Daniel bought the property from the Fancy family in 2010.Daniel will be speaking about the farm, as well as their unique farming methods. Their practices prioritize the health of the soil, the diversity of life on the farm, and the farm's role in the community. He will also be discussing his book, The No-Till Organic Vegetable Farm, a distillation of lessons learned during the first ten years of starting Frith Farm.
