Field Renews After 1950s Flood Destruction on Zenobia Road
Clarkfield farmer Carl Gibson rebuilt a 55 acre corn field after the Vermilion River flood washed away topsoil and left rocks. He hired a bulldozer crew to remove stones and used river sand to cover the field, planning future rock removal and dike use. The 25 acres flooded last year yielded about 500 dollars, far below potential, but Gibson remains hopeful about recovery and longer term soil improvement.
