Rural Journal

Henry David Thoreau locked himself in a cabin in the woods in search of everything the rural-living experience can provide: natural wonder, quiet spaces for contemplation, and DIY reliance. It can also be frustrating, isolating, and politically fraught—just one reason why Thoreau’s little experiment lasted for only two years, and why his “secluded” cabin was less than a half mile to the train station and the main road into Concord. Join us here for Postcards from the Edge, our ode to rural living in upstate New York. Townie Talk features Louise & Robin in conversation about hot backwoods topics.  Postcards from the Edge | Townie Talk
