Area fire departments, passers by and locals rushed to Crystal Ball Farms Organic Dairy in Osceola last Thursday to help mitigate the damage of a barn fire. Although the barn burned to the ground, creamery manager Jessi Fouks said the outcome would have been worse if a passerby had not stopped to alert her to the fire. “He came running into the creamery and said, ‘Did you know the barn is on fire?’” recalled Fouks, who called 911 and started bringing cows out of the barn. She reported that all but two of the farm’s 83 cows survived.
