Every week Johanna Conlan and Sophie Sawyer can be found in the First Parish Church kitchen creating classic recipes with a creative twist. They are the owners of Pine Point Provisions, a meal delivery service that delivers fully prepared meals to your door in Gorham, Scarborough, South Portland, Cape Elizabeth, and Buxton every Friday. They currently have over 300 subscribers who receive their weekly menu.

Conlan and Sawyer were inspired to start their company because of their mutual love for cooking. They were both avid home cooks often preparing meals for family and friends. While working together at a local kitchen they developed a loyal following that made them realize there was a market for their food.

They knew that owning their own business would give them the freedom to get creative with menus and serve the kind of food they love to eat. However, finding a space for a small startup was a challenge. They were fortunate to come across an ad for a kitchen rental at the First Parish Church in Gorham. They said that everyone at the church has been supportive and encouraging. They feel fortunate to have found them.

Each week they put out a new menu featuring soups, salads, entrees, quiche, pasta salads and desserts. The idea is that customers can order from their website anytime between Friday afternoon through Monday. The order is delivered to your door on the following Friday and you have delicious, homemade provisions for the entire week. Hence the name Pine Point Provisions.

Some of their most popular items are: dinners such as homestyle meatloaf, ham, pork loin, chicken salad, quiche, pasta salads, pumpkin bread and rice pudding.
If you want to try their food before placing a full order you can find them at the Gorham Farmers Market. Beginning Saturday, July 26, they will be at the Gorham Farmers Market every other Saturday. Find more information at pinepointprovisions.com
