Wolfe's Neck Center hosts an array of activities and events designed to engage people with farming, food, and the great outdoors.
From our Farm to Table Dinner Series to our Annual Harvest Dance to our Backyard Gardener Workshop series, Wolfe's Neck Center events are fun and memorable opportunities to enhance your camping experience while supporting our nonprofit educational farm.
Wolfe's Neck Center is the perfect setting to explore by water or land! Rent a kayak and canoe and head on to the calm waters of Casco Bay, where you can search for harbor seal and osprey. Or enjoy the peaceful country roads and scenic vistas by bicycle.
Join us for a farm-themed story time! We'll meet in our barn (or inside the farmhouse in the winter) to read a few stories about our different farm animals and more. Sit back and bring a snack, if you'd like!
Join the goat herd! We'll meet at our Wishcamper Livestock Education barn and browse the trails through the woods on a half-mile loop with a few of our curious goats. Since we are a working farm, we require parents remain with their children at all times.
Please note: There is limited capacity of fifteen (15) individuals for this program. Pre-registering is the only way to guarantee a spot.
$10 per person, recommended for ages 12 and up.
