The Raitt Homestead Farm was built in 1896 by Charles A. Raitt on State Road in Eliot,
Maine. Charles was a local brick mason, manufacturing bricks on the property. He also
operated a saw mill at the farm and had a successful apple orchard whose produce was
shipped as far away as England.
1996 started a new era for the Raitt Homestead Farm. The first Eliot Antique Tractor and
Engine Show (started by David and Marion Raitt) was held on the farm. Friends, family and
neighbors helped put on the show. It was a terrific succes! And that was how the Eliot
Antique Tractor and Engine Association was formed. Read More...
