Thoreau Alliance 2026 Online Auction

Join us for our annual online auction, taking place March 1–31, 2026, and bid on an exciting array of fun, unique, and one-of-a-kind items—all while supporting two mission-driven organizations.

Each year, we bring together extraordinary experiences and exclusive offerings generously donated by our community partners. Past contributors have included the Museum of American Bird Art, Mount Vernon, the Worcester Red Sox, Gropius House (part of Historic New England), and Arrowhead, the historic home of Herman Melville. From cultural experiences and historic tours to sports packages and special-access opportunities, there’s something for everyone.

Proceeds from the auction directly support the shared mission of the Thoreau Society and Thoreau Farm. Funds raised help advance cutting-edge scholarship, preserve the birthplace of Henry David Thoreau, provide educational programs throughout the year, and inspire all to engage deeply with Thoreau’s enduring legacy.

Donations are welcome at any time. If you would like to contribute an item—or suggest one for this year’s auction—please email info@thoreaualliance.org.

Mark your calendar and get ready to bid for a cause this March!

Special thanks to our auction sponsor The Writings of Henry David Thoreau (Princeton Edition)!
