G4U Farm Set On Fire, Vandalism at G4U Store

Around 9:30pm last night (Sunday March 30), the Good For You Farm on Route 9 in Lewes, was set on fire. This follows vandalism to the Good For You Farm truck parked overnight at the Good For You Market on Route 9, Lewes, 3 weeks ago. The truck's fuel line was cut, plus other damage, totaling $500.

The fire department was called to the farm, 3 fire trucks in total. It appears the shed was attempted to set on fire, it is saturated with gasoline. The front part of the field was set on fire. Thankfully the fire department responded very quickly, and the wind was blowing away from our neighbor's home.

It appears that the fire may have been set intentionally, although we are awaiting an official report from the State Fire Marshall and they have not ruled intentional damage yet.

Unfortunately, G4U will have to install video surveillance cameras at both locations.

Someone out there may not like the G4U business, or may not understand the context of running a business. Heck, you may not even like me personally. Or it just may be random damage. However, we are taking this very seriously. It is not infeasible at this time of year that we have staff working at the farm and the market in the evening. Someone may get hurt if this continues.

If anyone has any information relating to these events, please call the State Fire Marshall, Deputy Galaska, or Deputy Magee, on (302) 856-5600, or e-mail dale.magee@state.de.us

You can also call G4U on (302) 684-8330, or e-mail goodforu@comcast.net

Thank you, Andy.
