Open Forum

Please join us at this open forum to share your questions and input about the potential merger between Thoreau Farm and Thoreau Society.

We encourage you to spend some time reviewing the existing documents that detail the 20 months of careful consideration already given to this question, the next few months of preparing for an official vote, and what happens after a vote, whether the merger passes or not.
