Morning Call article about the Fire: https://www.mcall.com/news/breaking/mc-nws-lynn-township-hogs-barn-fire-20190921-2pzpz2lidzcvlikz3hznz4gzy4-story.html
The sow unit at Billig Farms was established in 2005 to ensure a financial future for the Billig's sons - George, Daniel, and Timmy.
Tragically, Timmy passed away in 2008 from Leukemia. Since then Tim and Teresa, their surviving sons George and Daniel, their daughter-in-law Brandi, and their two grandsons James and Jayden have run the operation.
On Saturday, September 21, 2019 the two barns housing all of their livestock were lost in a fire. To say the family is devastated would be an understatement. In order to help them through these challenging times, we are raising money to help them cover living expenses as they work to recover from their loss.
