WELLS, MAINE — The 23rd annual Wells Antiques Show and Sale will be conducted this year on Sunday, June 30, on the seaside grounds of the historic Wells Reserve at Laudholm Farm. Heralded as one of the best antiques shows in New England, more than 75 exhibitors from all over New England, New York, New Jersey and Virginia will be displaying and selling antiques in every area of the antiques market under large and small tents, on two floors in the barn and in the open.

John and Elizabeth DeSimone of Goosefare Antiques & Promotions have gathered exhibitors specializing in early painted and country furniture, Americana, folk art, antique and vintage jewelry, early ceramics and silver, glass and china, early baskets and decoys, early pottery, brass, copper and pewter, quilts, vintage linens and other textiles, tools, garden furniture and more.

The Wells Show, always conducted on the last Sunday in June, has become a destination for antiques collectors, dealers and lovers from all over the Northeast and beyond. Customers now plan their buying trip around the antiques show and come year after year to stock up for the summer shows and to enjoy Laudholm Farm. Visitors should leave some extra time to investigate some of the more than 2,000 acres of the Wells Reserve at Laudholm Farm.

The Wells National Estuarine Research Reserve at Laudholm Farm preserves 2,500 acres of fields, forests, wetlands and beach on the coast of southern Maine. Here the Merriland, Webhannet and Little Rivers meet the ocean tides, creating a rich estuarine habitat for wildlife. Laudholm Farm, an historic saltwater farm, is the focal point. The facility, which comprises restored farmhouse buildings dating back to 1700, houses a Visitor Center with a welcoming video presentation, five rooms of exhibits and a gift shop. Seven miles of trails give visitors a view of the varied habitats of the reserve, and a great way to spend a day.

The antiques show will be catered with lunch and snacks available. Adult admission is $10 each ($8 with the ad appearing elsewhere in this paper). There is not an early buyers. Show hours are from 10 am to 3 pm and the show will be conducted rain or shine. Laudholm Farm is located off Route 1 in Wells, midway between Exits 19 & 25 of the Maine turnpike. Laudholm Farm Road is 50 yards south of the Maine Diner on Route 1. Because of the many wildlife habitat and nesting grounds, Laudholm does not allow dogs, leashed or otherwise, to walk the grounds.
