This program will be held virtually.

Join Loganberry Books and the Nature Center at Shaker Lakes for this quarterly book club. This May, we will be discussing The Planter of Modern Life:  Louis Bromfield by Stephen Heyman.

What do Malabar Farms, Humphrey Bogart and soil conservation have in common?  Louis Bromfield was born in Mansfield, Ohio, went on to become a WWII ambulance driver, a Pulitzer Prize winning-author in the 1920's, an ex-pat in France and an early proponent of conservation.    With his experimental farm, Malabar Farms, Bromfield played an important role in the environmental movement we know today.  Bromfield's story is one not to be forgotten, colorful in so many ways, but so very important in the world's discussion of sustainable agriculture and organic farming today.
