The Weekly Packet has been serving the Blue Hill Peninsula for the last five decades. It shares the stories and news of Blue Hill, Brooklin, Brooksville, Sedgwick and Surry, Maine. Steeped rich in traditions such as fishing, boat building and agriculture, the newspaper follows the lives of its people and industry while also serving as the local paper of record and reporting on the municipal and educational decisions that affect the lives of the people that call the peninsula their home. Blue Hill, with its hospital and diverse alternative health care providers, as well as its many businesses and cultural institutions, serves as a nexus for the area.
