The Guptill family has been farming the land at Hackmatack since the 1680s. Today we raise 100% grass-fed American bison (or buffalo) and heritage breed Mangalista pigs. Our farm store is open seasonally April - November. Swing by and say hello to the herd!

HACKMATACK FARM

ABOUT THE FARM

Hackmatack was founded in 1972 by S. Carleton Guptill, who envisioned a summer stock theater that would showcase the talents of professional and developing thespians from the regional New England area. Since then, Hackmatack has grown into a keystone of the Seacoast art scene.

HISTORY OF HACKMATACK

OUR STORY

We are looking for theater lovers to open their homes as Hackmatack Hosts for visiting out of state actors!

Hosts receive free season passes, a special pre-show Happy Hour for you and your friends and a gift box of Homemade Hackmatack goodies. And of course, Hosts will have the pleasure of introducing folks “from away” to the joys of summertime in Maine!

Your hospitality will fuel cultural exchange and foster vibrant connections by supporting local arts and community institutions.
