UMaine Extension is your doorway to University of Maine expertise. For more than 100 years, we’ve been putting university research to work in homes, businesses, farms, and communities—in every corner of Maine. Our educational efforts focus on the Maine Food System, Positive Youth Development, and Community and Economic Development. UMaine Extension Cumberland County gives local residents access to
the resources and expertise of the University of Maine. Through educational programs, publications, and events, UMaine Extension delivers unbiased, research-based information to Cumberland County citizens. We can answer your questions on a wide array of topics. UMaine Extension’s successful educational programs result from a federal, state, and county partnership that addresses the issues of Cumberland County residents. Since 1919, when the Maine Legislature passed the County Extension Act, the University of Maine has been in all Maine communities with a local county office that is funded in part by each county government. The Cumberland County Extension Association (CCEA) oversees the funding allocated by the Cumberland County Commissioners, which provides the residence, support staff, and basic operations for UMaine Extension in Cumberland County.
