About Wolfe's Neck Center

Wolfe's Neck Center for Agriculture & the Environment is building an ecologically and economically resilient food system in the Northeast through regenerative agriculture. Based on a diversified, organic farm of over 600 conserved acres on the coast of Maine, our nonprofit works to accelerate food systems change through public education, farmer training and market development, and agricultural research and innovation. With its demonstration farm, oceanfront campground, wooded trails, and historic buildings, our vibrant campus serves as a unique hub for education and exploration.

Wolfe's Neck Oceanfront Camping is a vital part of the Wolfe's Neck Center organization and its mission. For over 50 years, WNOC has welcomed campers from all over the world to our more than 600 acre campus, including four miles of oceanfront along Maine's coastline. Encompassing 150 tent and RV sites, 5 Cabins and A-Frames as well as comfort and quiet camping options, WNOC provides a variety of outdoor camping and recreation experiences to help individuals and families connect with the outdoors, food, and farming.

WNOC Campground & Recreation Staff are the forward facing team that make sure our thousands of yearly visitors have a welcoming, safe, and meaningful experience at Wolfe's Neck Center.
