Greenfield celebrates business & homeowner rebuilding following a devastating tornado
Greenfield is celebrating homeowners and businesses rebuilding after an EF-4 tornado devastated the town back in May. Seven groundbreaking ceremonies were held Sunday across town for six homes and one business that are rebuilding, according to the Greenfield Chamber Main Street. The business breaking ground is Super Suds Auto Wash.
Organizer Gina School said her home and business were ok from the storm so it’s important to be able to give back to people who need it. The chamber says this is just the first round of groundbreaking ceremonies. The school said they saved dirt from each house and will use it to plant trees in public places next year.
Pam and Dean Wiggins’ family did start fundraising for new trees in town. The hope is to use the dirt to plant one of the trees. The school says she’s also planning another project ahead of the holiday season. She’s raising money to buy Christmas decorations for people who lost their homes so they can have a new tree and decorations.
