A Saskatchewan farm business is recognizing its employees and the community for springing into action to put out a fire.
“Thankfully, thanks to the quick response and teamwork of our staff, neighbours, and the Borden Fire Department, the situation was brought under control quickly, with minimal damage,” Walker Farms said on its Facebook page on Oct. 21. “We’re incredibly grateful to everyone who jumped in.”
Borden firefighters responded to a call about a grain dryer and truck on fire at the fourth-generation cattle and grain farm in the RM of Great Bend.
When they arrived on scene, the bulk of the firefighting had already occurred using fire extinguishers and water.
