Farm Vandalism

From a recent press release:

The Grant Family Farm’s mobile chicken coops were recently vandalized. Donated school buses turned chicken condos previously adorned with children’s paintings have been defaced with images of swastikas and anti-gay slurs. Grant Family Farm is one of Colorado’s first organic farms. They play a large role in the community and provide thousands of pounds of food to those in need.

“It is sad to see this happen to one of our members who is trying to provide his community with healthy, wholesome food,” said Troy Bredenkamp, Executive Vice President of Colorado Farm Bureau, “We will not tolerate this criminal behavior or any type of vandalism against farmers and ranchers.”

Colorado Farm Bureau is offering a $500 reward for any information leading to the arrest of the vandals. If anyone has information about this incident, they are asked to contact the Larimer County Sherriff at (970) 416-1985.
