Tucked between Casco Bay and the wooded interior of southern Maine, Cumberland is a place whose character is shaped by low rolling terrain and a shoreline that reaches the bay at Cumberland Foreside. The town is part of the Portland metropolitan area, yet its center retains a rural pattern of farms, woodland and residential lanes. Cumberland Fair, held each autumn by the Cumberland Farmers’ Club since 1868, brings agricultural competitions, livestock and fairground traditions to town. Its tidal coast connects Cumberland with the island-dotted waters that define much of Maine’s southern shoreline.
