Operating as a nonprofit organization since 1997, and an organic coastal farm for over sixty years, Wolfe’s Neck Center for Agriculture and the Environment is a farm-based education, research, and visitor center set amidst more than 600 acres of conserved open space along Casco Bay in Freeport, Maine.
Through USDA’s Partnerships for Climate-Smart Commodities program, Wolfe’s Neck Center will collaboratively lead an investment of $35 million to implement climate-smart agricultural practices. Learn more about this project below!
The Smith Center for Education & Research is the centerpiece of our reimagined campus, representing our transformation from a Farm to a Center. Every aspect of this new Center, including the design, layout, and furnishing enhances Wolfe’s Neck Center’s ability to significantly grow our programmatic offerings and impact. The Smith Center is able to accommodate groups of 5 to150 and is perfectly situated at the heart of our campus.
The Farm to Table series has been a vital fundraising and community building effort at Wolfe’s Neck Center for many years. In 2024, we invite you to join us in exploring the Maine foodscape with the area’s best producers, chefs, and food system leaders.
With the new Smith Center as the hub of our event series, we have the ability to host more events that will provide guests with a deeper connection to food, farming, and the excellent chefs and producers we have here in Maine. This season, we have three different categories of events that provide different experiences with our partners.
At our core, Wolfe’s Neck Center is a community that cares about this special place and the work we do. Our members are the backbone of this community. We would not be us without you! Member contributions help us responsibly steward this extraordinary landscape of more than 600 acres, including 3 miles of trails, and keep it free and open to the public. If you love this place as much as we do, consider becoming a member!
Our Business Partners invest in the future of food and farming by supporting Wolfe’s Neck Center. Their marketing partnership connects them with the tens of thousands of visitors who come to the farm each year.
