The Oliphant Farm: A Historical Agricultural Site in Delaware
The Oliphant Farm, nestled outside Laurel, Delaware, played host to the state's 29th round of agricultural easement selections in October 2025. This event marked over 100 acres dedicated to cultivating corn and soybeans for five generations of a single family. The oldest building on the farm stands as a testament to its rich history.
"In the world of agricultural conservation, this farm is a symphony of tradition and resilience," noted the Science Blog, underlining the importance of preserving such historical landscapes.
