John Greenleaf Whittier Homestead - is the birthplace and home of American Quaker poet and abolitionist John Greenleaf Whittier. It currently serves as a museum.

The homestead is located at 305 Whittier Road in Haverhill, Massachusetts. Built in 1688 by Thomas Whittier, pioneer and great-great-grandfather of John. Thomas Whittier chose the site (originally 148 acres) for its proximity to Fernside Brook, which could both provide water and turn the wheel of a gristmill. The poet was born in 1807 in the southwest parlor of the farm house, which today remains essentially the same as it was in that year. The homestead is the setting for his best-known and best-loved narrative poem Snow-Bound, published in 1866 and an instant bestseller.
