The festival began in 1952 to raise funds for a new parsonage. The name came from farmers pledging the proceeds from an acre’s crops, though other non-farming members devised their own plans to contribute.
Proceeds from this year’s festival will go toward repairing and restoring stained glass windows at the church.
