A Winning Woodpile

A Winning Woodpile
Feel like a new cup of Joe?  How about enough for a whole year?  Now is your chance — and it’s organic!  Matt’s wood roasted organic coffee based in Pownal is having a free coffee contest.  You could win a supply for a year, but only if you have the woodpile to win it.

That’s right. Because they use “native sap and fruitwood from the forests of Maine… to gently roast small batches of beans in a vintage Italian roaster,” they want to see your woodpile in all its artistic glory.  “Even a ramshackle, novice effort exhibits a certain lopsided, geometric charm.  And as for wood well-stacked and seasoned, well, we’ve seen some piles here in Maine that deserve to be installed in the MOMA [the Museum of Modern Art in New York City]." 

Send in your masterpiece to woodpile@mattscoffee.com. For complete contest details click here.

About The Maine Mouth

We don’t need Saveur, Gourmet, and Food & Wine magazines to tell us (though we appreciate the mentions) that our state is renowned for its culinary excellence. From fresh produce to plates of haute cuisine, it’s all here, and The Maine Mouth will help you find it. A combination of Maine food information and inspiration, The Maine Mouth is the place where you can get the word of mouth advice that will lead you to the good eats—and all that is related to it—from York to Fort Kent. I’ll be traveling across the state to farm stands, top restaurants, burger joints, bakeries, clam shacks, ice cream stands, wineries, and more, and reporting about the places worth seeking out. Plus I’ll include some recipes and stories from my own Maine experiences. I hope you'll help by sending in your own suggestions and comments so the Maine Mouth spouts off (pun intended) a true food dialogue that spans the entire state.
