Green Acre
From Bahaikipedia
Green Acre Bahá'í School (or just Green Acre) is one of three leading institutions that operate in the United States with the purpose of promoting the interest of the Bahá'í Faith through study and deepening on the Writings and topics related to the Faith. This is done primarily through weekend-long courses held on the campus of the institute and conducted by knowledgeable Bahá'ís.
Green Acre is located in Eliot, Maine and was founded by Sarah Farmer in 1894.
After Sarah Farmer became a Bahá'í in 1900, many Bahá'í speakers were invited, including Mírzá Abu'l-Fadl in 1903, 'Abdu'l-Bahá in 1912 and Mírzá Fadil-i-Mazindarani in 1920. In the 1913 Green Acre came into Bahá'í hands, and in 1929 it was converted into a summer school facility.
