Greenhouse Loss from Wind storm

In the early morning hours of March 8th a wind storm ripped through our region and caused a complete loss of our secondary greenhouse structure. In a few short weeks this heated greenhouse would normally be filled with plants- our small, organic, woman owned farm’s main source of income. We need to replace and recover this structure as fast as we possibly can and pay workers to help us complete this task. This loss comes at a critical time of year for our farm and also a time when most of our labor and cash flow is going towards starting plants. In 15 years of living on the farm we have never experienced this amount of damage and we are concerned about our ability to recover from this loss during our busiest time of year. We estimate that the cost to replace the frame of the greenhouse will be around 14,000 and the partial cost of labor to rebuild the greenhouse will be around 7,000. Please help in any way you can and share with those you think may be able to help, this is a completely unexpected expense that we cannot cover on our own. For the last 15 years it has been our passion to provide our customers with high quality certified organic plants and produce and we hope to be able to continue to do this for many years to come.
