Gardner, who raised oranges in Florida, was chosen as president... Annual conferences continued to be hosted at Spring Valley until the center of activity shifted to Kimberton, Pennsylvania (abour thirty-five miles southwest of Rodale's center in Emmaus), where philanthropists H.

The Pew brothers' small-government views were shared by Ralph Courtney at Threefold Farms..."
