We run the business here at the farm in a licensed commercial kitchen, always using the freshest local ingredients. The gardens are right out the door so we can pick fresh herbs, edible flowers and vegetables when in season. We sell organic herbs, flowers, baked goods, prepared foods and specialty items.
You can find us at the Lewiston Farmer's Market on Sundays during the summer season from May until October. We are available for catered events, anything or anywhere. I traveled to Australia to cater a 50th birthday party and to Florida to cater a wedding with an Autumn theme. I had to bring the leaves and the pumpkins with me.

Mount Apatite Farm is on the Hatch Road in Auburn. The white tailed deer are usually around at sunset. There's a flock of wild turkeys in the neighborhood; and there's always a visiting skunk, fox, porcupine or woodchuck. During the summer and fall season we have organic herbs, flowers, baked goods and specialty items for sale.

Working with Carol was a pleasure! From the first meeting, we were impressed with Carol's knowledge and expertise. She walked us through planning the appetizers and buffet for our wedding and offered to do a tasting as well. We were very pleased with the quality of her food and her use of homegrown ingredients. She was very willing to offer extras such as table clothes and serving utensils. We were also happy to learn that she could take care of our flowers as well. She gave us a tour of her flower gardens and gave us the opportunity to choose flowers for our tables, bouquet and boutonnieres. I

I first met Carol of Mount Apatite Farm & Catering in 2013 at the Lewiston Farmer's Market and she has since become an outstanding role model in my life; personally and professionally. She is a friendly and nurturing soul with a real knack for assembling beautiful bouquets, planning and preparing elegant meals from scratch, and catering to the unique taste and wishes of the people she serves. I highly recommend scheduling a visit to the farm in the peak of summer (July / August) for a tour of the garden.

Her cooking is amazing! Carol has cooked for our family for over five years. She is able to accommodate almost any dietary restrictions and preferences. In our little family, we have a vegan, a vegetarian, and an omnivore. Yet Carol consistently prepares delicious and healthy meals that put smiles on all of our faces. She also fills our freezer with wonderful ready-to-eat meals that keep us well-fed between her visits. During harvest season, she delights us with fresh ingredients from her own organic garden, as well as from other local farmer friends.
Carol has also catered a business open house

A must visit during growing and harvest season. Carol maintains an fabulous organic garden from Greens to Grapes to gorgeous flowers she sells at the local Farmers Market. If your lucky, you may also catch her in her commercial kitchen where cooks up Garden to Table meals for her catering business. Taste some of the delicacies, purchase a full meal deal or take home a bouquet of flowers, dried or fresh. A true inspiration! She will also set you up with a tour of the adjacent Mt Apatite Mine, where you can forage for Maine Minerals....

From the moment my husband and I reached out to Carol, we knew we had found the right person to help us navigate the ins and outs of catering a very DIY wedding. We are so glad our paths crossed!
Carol catered our wedding dinner and grew beautiful flowers on her farm that we cut and arranged ourselves. She and her team of two others worked tirelessly and efficiently through a heatwave to prepare and serve both delicious hors d'oeuvres (phyllo pastry seafood puffs and baked brie with grapes and crackers - so tasty!) and a full buffet meal for our 80+ guests. We had homestyle grilled chicken, garden

I am horrible, Carol did my staff Christmas party last year and it was amazing!! I am horrible because just realized I never left a review. Not only did she cook, I moved into a new house and she brought dishes, silverware, drinkware, linens, etc. I enjoyed my 20 plus guests and it was amazing. She was even staying after to clean. She was amazing and the food was amazing. I was only searching for her to book her again and realized I never left a review. I could not recommend her enough, the food and just how comfortable she made everyone feel. Awesome!!

Carol catered our wedding this past year and we could not have been happier with everything. The prices were the most reasonable by FAR...and I mean too good old to be true compared to other caterers. The food was farm fresh, home cooked, and plentiful. Many of our guests took the time to let us know how awesome the food was. There was quite a bit leftover and we were sad to eat the last of it a few days later for dinner.
Carol also offers a pick your own flowers situation where you go to her farm and pick flowers for an insanely cheap price. Although we couldn’t take advantage of it due to

I have known Carol for a few decades! Having relocated to South Florida over 40 years ago, it was an absolute thrill to visit Mt. Apatite Farm while visiting Maine for a family reunion. I had a wonderful tour of her garden and purchased several of her catering items for our reunion lunch! All delicious... super-fresh and welcomed by all my relatives. Carol is very creative, thorough, and always aims to please. And she is very successful in doing that. I highly recommend her and her services.
