Owls Head voters approve zoning change that will allow farms to host weddings

BANGOR DAILY NEWS • August 30, 2021

Farms in Owls Head on more than 15 acres will now be allowed to host weddings and other events after voters approved a change to local zoning rules. At the annual town meeting Monday night, residents approved amending a zoning ordinance to allow events on certain properties in the town’s rural-residential zones by a vote of 142-87. The change was spearheaded by the owners of Ash Point Farm ― a former winery ― who would like to host events such as weddings to supplement the farm’s income.
