Smith’s Farm donates $25,000 to Presque Isle community center project

 The Presque Isle Community Center Campaign Committee is pleased to announce a $25,000 donation from Smith’s Farms.
The Smith’s Farm family has been proudly farming in Aroostook County since 1859. With operations in both Maine and Florida, their headquarters are located on the Fort Fairfield Road in Presque Isle. They are one of the largest suppliers of broccoli east of the Mississippi River.
“The Haskell building has played a huge role in the health and wellness of the Presque Isle area,” said Zach Smith of Smith’s Farm. “It just seems right to invest in something that teaches so many life lessons in teamwork, sportsmanship and community participation. We are pleased to be able to contribute to this project.”
