Camping on crown land is legal in Nova Scotia, as long as it isn't being harvested for forestry or otherwise specifically prohibited. There are some areas of crown land near Enfield, including a very large patch of crown land in the Oldham area. Be careful not to trespass through private lands to reach crown land, and make sure you are certain that the land you intend to camp on really is crown land—it will not be marked with a big sign.
