Don Westerman, Decatur, Illinois, hammers an electric fence post into the ground to make a temporary repair to a damaged fenceline in Macon County. Many more fence building crews are going to be needed in Sumner, Macon, and Trousdale Counties in Tennessee this spring and summer. The Fellowship is hauling in hay for cattle being dry lotted in the disaster area due to storms and drought conditions. Local hay is scarce and costs $80.00 per roll. The initial load of 42 big rolls was donated by South Louisiana cattlemen who were helped during Hurricane Rita in 2006. FCFI used donated farmer owned trucks with cash donations for diesel fuel to get the South Louisiana hay delivered.
