Replica of Henry David Thoreau's cabin being constructed by students of Prof. Edward Gillin at SUNY Geneseo

Our thanks to students from Prof. Ed Gillin’s course as they explained what it’s like to construct a replica of Henry David Thoreau’s cabin. Planing, notching, scrounging, organizing—a lot of work has gone into this simple structure! Visit the Thoreau-Harding Project website to learn more.
