SUMMARY:“My vicinity affords many good walks”; A Saunter Exploring Thoreau Farm’s Biology & History
DESCRIPTION:Although Henry Thoreau spent only the first 8 months if his life living in his grandmother’s farmhouse\, he would return to Virginia Road time and again throughout his life to visit the scenes of his early childhood. \nJoin Biologist Amity Wilczek and Historian Richard Smith for a walk around the Thoreau Farm property as they explore the biological and historical importance of the Virginia Road landscape. How has the area changed since the pre-Colonial era? What plants and animals did Thoreau see in the 19th Century and how have invasive plants and climate change altered the world that Thoreau knew? \nAmity Wilczek is an evolutionary ecologist and educator who taught at Harvard and Brown before transitioning to Deep Springs College\, where over 10 years she served as Herbert Reich Chair of Natural Sciences\, Academic Dean\, and Vice President. Her work on plant responses to changing environments has appeared in Science\, PNAS\, Ecology\, American Naturalist\, and Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society among others. Nearly all of her research involves substantial collaboration with undergraduate and pre-PhD co-authors. Amity currently lives in Concord\, Massachusetts and serves as a trail steward of the Emerson-Thoreau Amble for the town. \nRichard Smith has lectured on and written about antebellum United States history and 19th-century American literature since 1995. He has worked in Concord as a public historian and Living History Interpreter since 1999 and has portrayed Henry Thoreau at Walden Pond and around the country. Richard has written six books for Applewood Books and is a regular contributor to Discover Concord Magazine.
