Here’a a quick, terrifying reminder to A) have an emergency plan, and B) have amazing neighbors. The hay barn at Sharon White’s Last Frontier Farm was struck by lightning and caught fire earlier this week while she was away teaching, but the farm staff and local neighbors jumped into action quickly. Fortunately, the hay barn was situated away from other buildings on the property in case of just such a situation and the local emergency responders were able to contain the fire’s damage to the hay barn and hay supply itself. While that’s certainly a big loss, we’re so thankful to hear that no humans or animals were injured.
