What to do and see in Freeport, Maine (ME): The Best Things to do Good for a Rainy Day
Local legend claims that Freeport was the birthplace of Maine, the decision to separate from Massachusetts having been made in a local tavern way back in 1789. Whether this is truth or folklore, Freeport has much more to offer, including South Freeport, a historic harbourfront village offering up a fresh catch every day. Nearby Wolfe's Neck Woods State Park and the Mast Landing Audubon Sanctuary provide nature trails with scenic views of the Atlantic Ocean over the rocky shores of Maine.

Great experience doing the factory tour. Very friendly staff, good selection of treats, and interesting tour. You get some samples to try and the guide was very entertaining, and informative. Takes about an hour but it will be longer once you get out and shop your treat of choice.

Several types and varieties of breads and cookies. Not your typical bakery. Bright home 3 loaves of bread, most of which has disappeared! Friendly and knowledgeable staff, delicious breads, a Bavarian pretzel that cannot be beat, and a fantastic assortment of jams, jellies, mustards, and oils... Don't pass this bakery by.

We stopped at Stars & Stripes for a beer while visiting Freeport and we really liked the place. Staff was super-friendly and the beer was great. Love the décor and theme for the taproom. Since it was raining when we were there, we sat inside, but it was very comfortable. There is an outside patio area that looked nice, but we weren't able to use it in the weather. The popcorn is a nice touch also. We would definitely stop again if we were back in the area.
