Verhoeven Family Farm Fire Support

During the morning milking on November 17th, the Verhoeven’s realized their machinery shed had caught on fire. Unfortunately, the fire department was not able to salvage the building or the tractor and cropping equipment. Luckily the fire did not spread to the house although it did sustain surface damages. Estimated damages upwards of $150,000.00. Given the narrow margins of small dairy farming this will be a significant set back for the family.
