Farm Fact Friday!!
Did you know our farm purchased a fire truck two years ago? And not just any fire truck—it was the Town of Lamartine's former engine!
While it may not be fighting fires for the town anymore, it has found a very important second life here on the farm.
One of its main jobs is watering our driveway to help keep dust levels down. Dust can make it difficult to see and can be a nuisance for both our employees and anyone traveling by the farm, so we do our best to keep it under control.
The truck also serves as our mobile toolbox! We keep it stocked with tools and equipment so if something breaks down out in the field, we have everything we need ready to go. Instead of making multiple trips back to the shop, we can often get repairs made right where the equipment is.
It's pretty neat to see a piece of local history continue serving the community in a whole new way!
