A Love Letter to Maine is the 2026 Maine Women’s Project series celebrating the voices, stories, and quiet strength of the women who call this place home. Through reflection, connection, and belonging, six women share what it means to live a life shaped by Maine — its landscapes, its communities, and its heart.

Meet Penelope

Maine is filled with women whose roots run deep. Women who care for the land, nurture their communities, and carry forward traditions while finding new ways to make an impact. Penelope Jordan is one of those women.

Through Jordan’s Farm, Penelope has dedicated herself to Maine agriculture, connecting people to locally grown food and the land behind it. Her work reflects generations of stewardship, a commitment to sustainability, and a belief in the importance of supporting and feeding her community.

Her story is one of hard work, resilience, and a deep connection to Maine.

This is Penelope Jordan.
