The Raitt Homestead Farm was built in 1896 by Charles A. Raitt on State Road in Eliot, Maine. Charles was a local brick mason, manufacturing bricks on the property. He also operated a saw mill at the farm and had a successful apple orchard whose produce was shipped as far away as England.   1996 started a new era for the Raitt Homestead Farm.  Read More...

Thanks to Timberland for coming out last week and starting the Milk House Project!  It was a dream of the RHFM to have this project done and we are thrilled that it has begun.                                                                                                         Fun Fact: A few years ago John Raitt, dad of the famous american blues singer-songwriter Bonnie Raitt  visited the farm when he was in the area. John ended up having dinner and playing the piano for the family.  A fun time was had by all. We have a picture of John Raitt with Gerald, Nelson and David Raitt.   Bonnie Raitt's music is a favorite of everyone here at the Raitt Farm.
