Estabrook Woods, Concord, Massachusetts
The name comes from Thoreau who, in June of 1853 in his journal,
reflected on the area, and proposed the name Estabrook Country for IT.
Rarely talked about in public,
this piece of land is owned by the stewards of the woods to protect IT as a nature preserve.
And here I am,
with the thoughts on a thoroughly revealing message from the Estabrook Council:
Visiting most of Estabrook Woods is a privilege and not a right.
