WALDEN WOODS PROJECT

LINCOLN, MA

The Walden Woods Project is a non-profit organization founded by musician and environmental activist Don Henley in 1990, located in Lincoln, Massachusetts. The organization is dedicated to preserving the natural and cultural history of Walden Woods, the location where American author Henry David Thoreau wrote his famous book "Walden" in the mid-19th century.

The Walden Woods Project owns and manages over 2,000 acres of land in the area, including the Walden Pond State Reservation, and works to protect the area's wildlife, plants, and water resources. The organization also seeks to promote education and research related to Thoreau's philosophy and environmentalism, offering programs for schools, universities, and the general public.

One of the Walden Woods Project's most significant accomplishments is the preservation of Thoreau's cabin site, where he lived for two years while writing "Walden." The organization has also worked to prevent development in the surrounding area and to promote sustainable land use practices.

In addition to its conservation and educational efforts, the Walden Woods Project hosts events and fundraisers to support its mission, including benefit concerts, auctions, and book signings. The organization's work has been recognized by numerous awards and accolades, including the National Trust for Historic Preservation's National Preservation Honor Award.
