‘Former Inhabitants; and Winter Visitors,’ paragraph about a visiting farmer View passage ↗
This passage describes winter visitors. The displayed calendar combines seasonal routine passages, including summer bean-growing, and is not a dated Sunday. Walden is a literary memoir, not a diary entry.
Walden combines memories across two years. The bean-field block is seasonal; these habits are not a record of today’s date.
1845 is a representative display year selected by Typical Tuesday. The source covers his Walden years, 1845–1847, including the bean-growing season.
