About UMaine 4-H Learning Centers at Tanglewood and Blueberry Cove

The UMaine 4-H Learning Centers at Tanglewood and Blueberry Cove’s camp adventures and school programs are based on “Earth Connections,” nature discovery that helps youth become creative stewards of an interconnected world. We provide environmentally focused programming that inspires people to reach their full potential through learning by doing. The mission of Tanglewood and Blueberry Cove is to teach people from Maine and beyond to be effective and caring citizens of the earth through affordable environmental education and nature-based experiences.

Why Work here

Tanglewood & Blueberry Cove are both unmistakably beautiful places to work, nestled in the woods along the Ducktrap River and overlooking Tenants Harbor respectively. Our communities are friendly ones, for we recognize that every individual who works here plays an equally essential role in carrying out our mission.

Everyone who works here has the opportunity to play different roles from time to time; for example, our instructors often help out in the kitchen or work with our facilities crew. And members of our facilities staff include an educational component to their work, which allows them to occasionally work with children.
