Maine Building

Maine became the next state to erect a building along the Avenue. The dignified colonial replica of Maine’s original statehouse was built in 1925 at a cost of $50,000. Just a short walk from Massachusetts, the building features local food and products and a wealth of vacation information about this beautiful northeastern state.


You’ll have a chance to see forest animals, try Maine’s famous blueberries and participate in special activities on Maine Day – scheduled for the first Saturday of the fair. Information on hunting, fishing, camping, snowmobiling and skiing is also available in the building. Don’t miss the opportunity to taste one of the state’s famous baked potatoes – with all the toppings. Come meet the Exhibitors proudly showcasing the Pine Tree State!
