Pomona rests in a broad, gentle basin, where the land, a rich, dark loam, slopes with a languid grace towards the meandering Marais des Cygnes River. It lies 27.7 miles south-south-west of Lawrence, KS (from Lawrence, KS: bearing 205°T), and is situated 9.9 miles west of Ottawa. The sky here is a vast, almost audacious canvas, stretching from horizon to horizon, often painted with clouds that drift like slow galleons. Oak and hickory trees, their branches gnarled and spreading, punctuate the fields of alfalfa and corn, their leaves rustling with a sound like whispered secrets on the breeze. In the quietude of late afternoon, the sun spills a molten gold across the cultivated plains, and the air hangs thick with the scent of drying grass and the faint, sweet perfume of wild phlox blooming along the roadside ditches. This is a place where the past is not so much buried as it is a familiar presence, woven into the very grain of Pomona. The land was settled by folk seeking fertile ground, and for generations, agriculture has been the steady pulse of its economy, the rhythm of planting and harvest dictating the seasons of life. The Marais des Cygnes, a waterway that has witnessed the passage of countless lives and stories, still offers its quiet counsel, its waters reflecting the same sky that greeted the first homesteaders. While modernity has touched Pomona, it has done so with a gentle hand, preserving a sense of continuity; the grain elevator, a sentinel against the prairie sky, still stands as a testament to the enduring spirit of this agricultural heartland.
