Controversies with Franklin Jackson, Local Farm’s owner, and CEO, have changed the inspiration for hope among townspeople into despair. “[Franklin Jackson] told us that Local Farm was a pumpkin and he was planting the pumpkin to spread in Coniwein. Local Farm planted palm trees on about 750 acres of the land found in the Marblee Clan, the villagers, and the company say. He says Ebola, which broke out in Liberia in 2014, disrupted the farm’s initial efforts to produce palm oil. Reporters of The DayLight photographed and video-recorded one man carrying a container of palm oil from the plantation.
