Recovery efforts for Crabapple Fire

For those who would like to help, donations are being directed to the Crabapple Fire Relief Fund.

The fire has also impacted local ranchers and livestock owners in Gillespie County.  To aid recovery, a livestock supply point at Gillespie County Fairgrounds (530 Fair Drive in Fredericksburg) is collecting hay, feed and fencing supplies for affected cattle, sheep and goats.  It is open daily from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m.  Donations can also be facilitated by Behrends Feed & Fertilizer, Lochte Feed and General Store, Kerrville Ranch & Pet Center and Allied Ag Services Inc.
