Portland, ME Organic Ice Cream Maker Heads South For More Space

SOUTH PORTLAND – Ice cream in flavors like sea salt caramel-almond,
cardamom-ginger and chocolate-covered strawberry will soon be scooped up and
shipped out from a retail shop and production facility off Highland Avenue.

Maple’s Organics hopes to open in its new spot on Gary L. Maietta Parkway
–just down the road from the Recreation Complex at Wainwright Farms –in time
for April school vacation.

The new location will replace Maple’s Organics’ facility on Forest Avenue in
Portland and the retail shop in the Old Port that it closed in September in
anticipation of the move to South Portland.
