BRUNSWICK — To support and expand Maine’s food production capabilities, CEI — in partnership with FocusMaine — is offering the Tastemakers Initiative for a sixth time.
Applications are open to Maine agriculture, aquaculture or fishery businesses, or companies that source from Maine agriculture, aquaculture, or fisheries.
The initiative aims to help established food and beverage companies in Maine expand and improve production capacity, create jobs, and meet targeted growth goals.
Grants of up to $25,000 will be awarded through a competitive review process. The deadline to apply is midnight Friday, March 1.

We believe it's important to offer commenting on certain stories as a benefit to our readers. At its best, our comments sections can be a productive platform for readers to engage with our journalism, offer thoughts on coverage and issues, and drive conversation in a respectful, solutions-based way. It's a form of open discourse that can be useful to our community, public officials, journalists and others.
We do not enable comments on everything — exceptions include most crime stories, and coverage involving personal tragedy or sensitive issues that invite personal attacks instead of thoughtful discussion.
