Five Fields Farm, 720 South Bridgton Road, Route 107, Bridgton, Maine. Original apple trees planted in the late 1920s by John T. Gyger, Sr. Operation passed to son John T. Gyger, Jr. (who ran FFF for 40 +/- years), and subsequently to his son (John) Thomas Gyger III (who ran FFF for an additional 40 +/- years).

The farm derives its name from the first five fields planted as orchards. In the winter, Field Fields Farm operates a cross-country ski center with trails on its property as well as an abutter's, Loon Echo Land Trust.

Site was settled in 1776 by Enoch Perley (1749 - 1829).
