Still ‘no end to the potential’ at Malabar Farm

Ellen Bromfield Geld, daughter of the late Louis Bromfield, wrote Feb. 3 in the Mansfield News Journal about changes ahead at her childhood home, Malabar Farm, which is now an Ohio state park. The Mansfield-born Bromfield was a Pulitzer Prize-winning novelist who created Malabar as a demonstration farm for conservation practices and sustainable agriculture. He wrote about the farm in such books as Pleasant Valley. Geld, who lives in Brazil, is a writer and farmer in her own right. Her News Journal story includes mentions of CFAES’s Denny Hall and of Ohio State’s role, led by CFAES’s Clive Edwards, in establishing the Louis Bromfield Sustainable Agriculture Library.
