About the Bar Harbor Jam Company

The Bar Harbor Jam Company was founded in 1989 as a winter project at the Cottage Street bakery in Bar Harbor, Maine. For years, the Cottage Street Bakery was transformed into a jam and jelly making factory in the winter months.  Originally producing about 10,000 jars of preserves in several varieties, the company has grown immensely in recent years.

The company now is housed in its own year-round facility and produces over 90,000 jars per year. It is still located in Bar Harbor, Maine and produces high quality products in the traditional small hand-made batches that it became famous for. Only the finest selections of natural, native fruits are used to ensure the best possible taste and quality.

The Bar Harbor Jam Company now produces over 40 products and also carries other fine Maine-made gifts and gourmet products. While wholesale production is a large part of its business retail orders are shipped daily to all parts of the United Sates.

Periwinkle Publishing publishes a variety of Maine-based cookbooks that are popular throughout New England. Periwinkle Publishing is a subsidiary of the Bar Harbor Jam Company.

The owners; Greg, Mike and Pat along with their fine staff are committed to providing quality products and exemplary service. Please contact us with your ideas, concerns or questions.
