Packing and Local Food Options
In summer, it’s usually warm during the days and cooler at night. Open the windows during the day to let warmth in and close them downstairs when sleeping. There are plenty of food options so don’t bother bringing food. The market has excellent options including vegan. Island Spirits sells excellent coffee to make at home, plus wine, beer, and gourmet items, many local to Maine. The Saturday morning flea market chowders and baked goods.
