Shelterbelt experienced a devastating farm fire last month. With the support of 10 Fire Departments/Companies responding–in addition to 5 other state and county agencies, and with the help of volunteers, they are recovering. Consider helping Shelterbelt bounce back by ordering bulk meat! Buying meat in bulk can be daunting if you haven’t done it before, but Shelterbelt tries to make it easy for you.
