Pink Saturday Goes to Hedgerow

 

Welcome to Hedgerow, Tenants Harbor, Maine

If you're driving up the coast of Maine from Portland, you'll pass Freeport -- or you may stop at the LL Bean outlet. Then it's a ride past Bath and then Wicasset. Somewhere right around this time you'll find a country road and turn east and go just about as far as you can go. You'll come to Port Clyde and Tenants Harbor and you'll find one of my new discoveries on my trip to Maine, Hedgerow. It sounds like you've come to the end of the road, but it's well worth the journey. 

Betsy and I made the drive to Hedgerow to pick up a delicious chicken pot pie for dinner. A beautiful bouquet of the Hedgerow grown flowers also came home with us. There was produce, a beautifully curated collection of home goods and a display of art from local Maine artists. 

I loved living with a similar bouquet for the rest of my visit. 

All the bounty of the summer, fruit, flowers and vegetables and a beautiful stone fence. Every inch of Hedgerow is a photo opportunity. 

If you're ever even slightly near to Tenants Harbor -- and slightly is  a fifty mile radius -- and want a perfect New England shopping moment, Hedgerow is worth the drive. After your visit here, make your way to my new favorite restaurant Ancho Honey, which specializes in gourmet grilled cheese sandwiches. I had the Daytuna 500, which was the most amazing tuna melt in a lifetime of  tuna melts. 

This may be the last of the Maine posts for awhile, though I'm thinking that Ancho Honey deserves a post of its own. I've usually got a few posts in mind, but right now my mind is not generating ideas. I'm going to flip through my photographs and see what they inspire. 

I hope you've enjoyed our Pink Saturday adventure this week. It's made me long for a magic carpet that could zip me back to Maine for a return visit and an Ancho Honey sandwich. 

As ever, thanks for visiting. Have a great week!
