Training Program

BE OUR GUEST at the Robin Hood Training Center

Robin Hood Farm is more than a working farm—it is a place where history, agriculture, energy, science, and international affairs come together.

​

Located in Havre de Grace, Maryland, the farm provides a peaceful and historic setting for educational programs, lectures, and visiting groups interested in exploring issues related to energy and agriculture. The programs draw upon the experience and knowledge of William F. Martin and other distinguished guests and faculty, with an emphasis on practical ideas, informed discussion, and international perspectives.

​

Areas of interest may include energy sustainability, nuclear energy, renewable energy, energy efficiency, agriculture, and responsible stewardship of natural resources. Robin Hood Farm itself provides an example of the farm's commitment to sustainable practices through its renewable geothermal energy system.

Learning at Robin Hood Farm

The Training Center is intended to provide an opportunity for participants to step away from the traditional classroom and engage in thoughtful discussion in a historic and working farm environment.

​

Programs may include lectures, presentations, informal discussions, and opportunities to explore the farm and surrounding area. Program offerings, accommodations, meals, and other activities may vary depending upon the individual program.

​

Robin Hood Farm is conveniently located near the Aberdeen Amtrak station, providing access to the Washington, D.C.–New York corridor and making the farm an attractive setting for domestic and international visitors.

William F. Martin

William F. Martin, co-owner of Robin Hood Farm with his wife, Paule Audebert, brings decades of experience in energy, national security, international affairs, and science to the Training Center.

Mr. Martin served as Chief of Staff of the National Security Council in the White House West Wing and as Deputy Secretary of Energy during the Reagan Administration. He also served as Special Assistant to President Reagan for meetings with heads of state and accompanied the President on international and domestic travel.
