New Crew Members Travel to Farnam to Fence

The Orphan Grain Train fencing crew returned to Farnam, Nebraska on Tuesday, May 19th. The three-man crew hopes to finish the last section of fencing in the ravine. Farnam was one of the areas that was affected by the Cottonwood fire in western Nebraska. Thank you, DeWayne Erickson and Walt Rosenbaum for returning to finish the job. Thank you, Larry Tweedy for your willingness to join this team.

Orphan Grain Train plans to do more fencing for ranchers in the Hyannis, Nebraska area. We are looking for volunteers who would like to be a part of this project. If you are interested, please contact OGT Norfolk at (402) 371-7393 or info@ogt.org
