Welcome to Freeport, ME!
Local folklore credits Freeport with being the birthplace of Maine, as colonists from Massachusetts regularly debated over separation movements within the area's local tavern. Founded in 1789, the city is recognizable for Pettengill Farm and Wolfe's Neck Farm, both offering nature walks and guided tours. The Freeport Historical Society features a research library, educational programs and a museum for visitors interested in the history of the city. The Wolfe's Neck Woods State Park and the Desert of Maine both promote the preservation of the city's natural environment, as well as offer walking trails and picnic areas. Outdoor points of interest include the Freeport Country Club Golf Course, safari tours of the Desert of Maine and sailboat tours of Casco Bay. Introductions to area recreation activities are available through both the Woman Under Sail and the L.L. Bean Outdoor Discovery Schools. Also, do not miss Maine Winterfest in January to witness carving and snow works by professional and amateur ice carvers.
