Welcome!

CECLA is a burgeoning community of farmers, ecologists, musicians, and others dedicated to honoring, protecting and enriching Maine’s unique agricultural, ecological and cultural history and resources.   CECLA is dedicated to practicing, teaching and celebrating community-based ecological and cultural living arts. 

Our ultimate mission is to research, apply, and demonstrate the skills and processes of sustainable living, through small-scale organic farming, multiple-resource management, and community-building through educational and cultural programs. 

What’s Goin’ On?

CECLA is seeking Tenant Farmers

CECLA is searching for one or more tenant farmers to assist with aspects of its organic farming operation.  We envision a partnership with a tenant/ lease farmer who will continue use of low impact sustainable organic farming practices, which may include no till, various types of mulching, mixed plantings, and so on.  The tenant farmer will have the option to continue the established Dancing Cricket Farm CSA, and established  participation in local farmers markets.  We are particularly interested in a potential tenant who identifies with the CECLA mission.  For more information, please email us - see our 'Contact' page.
