In addition to the incredibly fresh produce he brings to market weekly, Scott also brings the jams and jellies, pickles and relishes, honey, maple syrup (and of course maple candies!) produced by his family.
The old-fashioned recipes come from his mother, Pat, we are told. The canning and preserving is done on site in their commercial kitchen on the farm.
And then there is the Maple-flavored Kettle Popcorn! Super crunchy and a bit sweet. Delicious! But dangerously addictive. The same people line up week after week.
In spring, Scott offers well-grown, healthy flower and vegetable seedlings, as well as hanging baskets from Proven Winners. Later, those plants become the fresh flowers he uses to create beautiful fresh arrangements and bouquets.

Topsham, Maine
Jeff Mao
Attends Cumberland Market
Knead & Nosh began in 2021, born from the passion of Maine educator Jeff Mao. Jeff initially focused on sharing his culinary knowledge through a cookbook and popular cooking classes. One class, in particular, captured the taste buds of many; hand-rolled NY bagels. The demand quickly grew beyond the classroom, with enthusiastic students persistently asking where they could buy Jeff's authentic bagels. This wave of support led Knead & Nosh to blossom into a micro bakery in January 2023, operating out of the supportive space of the Community Kitchen at the Mid Coast Hunger Prevention Program. Today, Knead & Nosh is delighted to bring those sought-after, hand-rolled bagels, crafted with care, directly to you at the farmers' market, as well as select local cafes and grocery stores.
Beyond the beloved bagels, Knead & Nosh embraces seasonal traditions. Keep an eye out starting in August for their special Chinese mooncakes, celebrating the annual mid-autumn festival. They offer both authentic fillings like rich, sweetened red bean paste, and a unique Maine twist - the Needham Mooncake - a blend of local flavors mixed with tradition! Every item from Knead & Nosh is meticulously hand-made, reflecting a dedication to quality and craft. Come say hello and taste the passion!

While they will always bring a variety of macarons, cookies and marshmallows to the farmers market, you can expect to see a limited-edition product or flavor each week, and maybe even jars of creamed honey and creamed maple syrup!
