Hurricane

In fall 2024, Hurricane Helene stormed through northern Florida, with Full Circle Dairy caught in its trail of destruction.

Hurricane Helene barreled through Florida last week, leaving a trail of devastation in its wake. Record-breaking winds wreaked havoc in the heart of Florida’s dairy industry, damaging farms, destroying barns and buildings, and mangling essential equipment.

It’s estimated Hurricane Ian tore through about four million acres of farmland in Florida. But it’s not just acres that have been impacted. One dairy farm lost 250 cows in the storm.
