Washington County is one of the oldest counties in Maine, which happens to be the oldest state in the nation. But underneath those demographics are dozens of small businesses which tell a different, more youthful, story. In this episode, I speak to three young entrepreneurs who have committed their talents and their time to building businesses -- and their lives -- right here in Washington County where they were raised.
Machias Marketplace - 207-255-0605, Kaylee Pettegrow, Machias Maine, providing a year-round link with Washington County farmers and the local community.
Murphy's Garage - 207-255-0375, Kayla and Joe Murphy, Machias Maine, offering maintenance, diagnostics, and repairs on all passenger vehicles and light duty trucks.
Cutler Harbor Rentals - 207-271-8888, Caleb Campbell, Cutler Maine, offering four unique short term rental units located in Downeast Maine in the small town of Cutler.
