WE NEED YOUR HELP! The Horn Farm Center farm house has been vandalized twice. The thieves stole copper pipes and hot water baseboard units and damaged the boilers and oil tanks. Some tools and a ladder were also stolen that Lowe's had so generously donated to the Horm Farm Center. Finally, a new canopy and four gallons of paint were stolen that were to be used in the restoration of the corn barn.
WHAT CAN YOU DO TO HELP?
We need to recoup the $2000 in deductible costs from the insurance claims. We are asking for cash donations and skilled labor and materials that can be used in the replacement of the heating and plumbing systems. Currently, the Horn Farm Center has one functioning toilet, one outside faucet and no hot water or heat! Any help would be greatly appreciated!
WE HOPE TO SEE YOU AT THE FARM!
