Myron was a farmer in Yarmouth. In the 1920 census and 1930 census, he and his family were living in Yarmouth, Cumberland Co., Maine.

"My grandfather, Myron LaForest was a chicken farmer, not exactly flowers, but there was land. His son Melvin, turned what land wasn't sold into a successful vegetable farming business throughout my childhood and beyond. Eventually he started selling flowers, bedding plants, etc. to meet the needs (and I'm guessing to avoid the competition of another vegetable farmer who's business grew faster) of the growing wealth of the population in Yarmouth. Disposable income = lovely landscaping opportunities. He was incredibly successful, and although he passed on several years ago, the business still thrives under the care of at least one of his daughters." (Joan Mapes Estabrook Melvin, granddaughter)
