Our Mission


We at the Harraseeket Inn believe that organic and naturally raised foods are not only better for the environment, but also taste better.  We strive to procure the freshest, locally grown, raised, caught and harvested ingredients in our menu offerings. We include delicious, low glycemic and gluten free preparations for your enjoyment and to fit your lifestyle.


We buy Maine products first to support the Maine farmer so there will 

always be a safe and secure food supply, to preserve the open space 

together with the skills of farming and to reduce the environmental impact of long distance food transportation.  Most of our fish are from local waters off our coast.


 We serve no farmed salmon, mackerel or other fish with known high levels of mercury.  As pressure is placed on fish stocks, we are looking for 

suitable new additions from sustainable fisheries that use low-impact 

techniques.  We are responsible for the future of our oceans and in order to ensure healthy fish stocks for our great grandchildren, we must act now to preserve and grow what we have left.


We use King Arthur organic flour and Maine grown whole wheat flour in our breads and pastries. We buy Oakhurst Milk because it is Maineís milk and a family owned business that uses no antibiotics or hormones.  We 

recycle and compost everything we can and all our frying fats are used to make the bio-diesel that powers our company vehicles.  We are proud to be a Maine Environmental Leader and will keep striving to reduce our waste stream through purchasing practices that focus on products that are from companies that share our concern for the environment.  Maine is a special place and we want to help keep it that way.


That is Our Mission.

Innkeepers
