A business opening this month in downtown Orono fuses the owner’s passions for baking and cheering on the University of Maine hockey team.

Tammy Fields, who lives in Glenburn, hopes to open the Golden Bean Cafe at 5 Mill St. in Orono later this month. While she waits on her state license, she is decorating the newly renovated space with signed hockey jerseys, pucks, and photographs of star athletes and coaches.

The bakery portion of the business, which is located next door to the cafe but will be joined with it once a wall is demolished, will likely launch in July, she said. Fields still needs to renovate the space and install new equipment.
