About this map

Farmington serves as the educational and agricultural hub of the region, anchored by the University of Maine at Farmington and the sprawling Farmington Fairgrounds. The town's layout is defined by the winding Sandy River, which separates the main town from West Farmington. To the west, the village of Temple marks a more secluded valley, where Temple Stream flows past the Village Cemetery and beneath the Temple Stream Dam.

The landscape is dotted with ancestral burial grounds like the Red Schoolhouse Cemetery and Savage Cemetery, offering vital clues for local genealogists. Topography is dominated by significant rises such as Voter Hill and Titcomb Hill, the latter of which supports the Titcomb Mountain Ski Area. Numerous small bodies of water, including Varnum Pond and Drury Pond, punctuate the hills, reflecting the rural character of this Franklin County community during the early 21st century.
