The Newforest Institute
is located on 300 acres of forest, fields, edible forest gardens and permaculture gardens in mid-coast Maine, within walking distance of the Village of Brooks, the Institute pursues its mission along multiple strands. The development and renovation of our facilities is guided by the ethics and principles of permaculture design. Our five-fold programs seek to cultivate individual and collective capacity for creative responses to those challenges in both the natural and built environments in order to envision and build a sustainable future for all.

Since our launch in early 2007, Newforest has organized and hosted numerous events at the community and regional levels. It has involved neighbors, schools, visiting scholars, interns, community and academic leaders, as well as tradesmen, builders and business owners in a wide range of educational programs as well as extensive and innovative garden, forest and building projects, all of which reflect our commitment to the values of human development and tangible works.
