Taste Maine’s Freshest! The Lost Kitchen Farmers Market To Open

This legendary Maine restaurant is adding a new twist for the summer.

Erin French is the owner of The Lost Kitchen, located at 22 Mill Street, in Freedom, Maine. This place is a foodie's dream come true, so much so, that it has become something of a phenomenon.

Their farmers market is opening for the season. You can join them at The Lost Kitchen, each and every Tuesday, throughout the summer, from 11 am-2 pm, to enjoy the outdoor market filled with some the freshest Maine produce, straight from some of their favorite farmers and makers.

Not only are there 20 vendors, but the home shop will be open, in addition to the wine shop.

You can visit them at the mill, when they open for the 2025 Season, on Tuesday, June 24th!

Incredibly, the restaurant has a capacity of only 48 seats and is so inundated with requests for reservations, that you have to send a postcard to have a shot at getting a table. Since they are only open from May to October, this is not an easy task. Diners are chosen through a random drawing. It is also popular, because of the beautiful location in Freedom, its unique cuisine, and farm-to-table dinners that have drawn raves from people all over the world.

Erin has made The Lost Kitchen so famous since its opening back in 2014, that is has its own TV show, which you can find on the Magnolia Network, which is now part of the Max streaming service.

Erin and her husband, Michael,also travel across America to discover ideas for new recipes for the restaurant. "Getting Lost with Erin French", is also available to stream on Max.

In addition, she has also authored books, and been featured on the Drew Barrymore Show, The Today Show, and CBS Sunday Morning.
