St. Francis
St. Francis is a town in Aroostook County, organized as a plantation on May 29, 1875 and incorporated as a town on March 1, 1967. The St. Francis River, which forms the northeastern border with Canada along with the St. John River, joins the St. John at the town of St. Francis. Across the St. John lies Madawaska County, New Brunswick.
The St. John River forms the northern boundary of this small community.
The Rocky Island nature preserve is a 2 acre habitat for six rare plants, at the confluence of the St. John and St. Francis Rivers and is managed by the Nature Conservancy.
