Crossroad Farm in Jonesport has been in existence almost forty years. It was begun by Arnold and Bonnie Pearlman, who bought their land in the sixties when it was completely forested. Arnold and Bonnie’s extremely hard work is very evident in the current success of Crossroad Farm. The farm produces nearly every vegetable that can be grown in the state of Maine. Because Arnold and Bonnie are vegetarians and have no domesticated animals to care for, they can focus on an intensive planting schedule and on building up their soil with locally abundant seaweed. The fruits of their labor are then sold to restaurants and health food stores along the coast from Jonesport to Blue Hill.
