Helping Maine communities manage change in alignment with smart growth

Maine has many strengths: iconic landscapes and architecture, a strong sense of local community, and our gritty, independent spirit.

GrowSmart Maine believes these strengths are the foundation for lasting prosperity. Our smart growth goals include downtown revitalization, conservation of farmland, forest and shoreland, and support for economic development that benefits not just today’s Mainers but future generations.

OUR MISSION

GrowSmart Maine supports communities in navigating change by convening to action, sharing thought leadership, and advocating, all in alignment with smart growth principles.
