Farmington

Tucked along the Sandy River in western Maine, Farmington is a place whose character is shaped by its river valley, wooded foothills and long connection to the region’s rural communities. The town is the seat of Franklin County and home to the University of Maine at Farmington, a public liberal-arts college whose origins reach back to the 19th century. Farmington also commemorates local inventor Chester Greenwood, credited with developing early earmuffs, during its annual Chester Greenwood Day celebration. The Sandy River continues south as a tributary of the Kennebec River, tying this inland town to a wider Maine watershed.
