Coming to Bernheim in fall of 2023, ACRE is a living installation addressing the organization’s history through a planting of redbud trees, that delineate an acre boundary, in memory of the forest that was previously devastated by industry at an acre a day.

ACRE was conceptualized during the 2021 artist residency of Anne Peabody, a multi-disciplinary artist whose work focuses on the parallels between man and the natural environment.

ACRE will be a powerful and beautiful installation that will also serve as a teaching tool.

ACRE is a longterm commitment. Over a ten year period, nearly four million visitors will have the opportunity to experience this living installation.
