Today we suffered the unimaginable. At 12:40am our beloved store caught fire. Our fire departments rushed to the seen to try and put the fire out. Firefighters worked tireless through out the night and we are so thankful for them. As of right now we do not know the cause of the fire. It is now under investigation and when we have more information we will share. 💔
No one was in the store at the time. We are so thankful that our employees and management are safe. We are devastated, heartbroken and still in shock of what has happened.
Now to answer the burning question about the cats. As many know we had 4 store cats who were like family to us. They were thought of as our mascots. As of right now we have not located any of the cats. We do know Firefighters and neighbors spotted cats running for the store. We have searched for them but not yet found them. We have also put out food where they were last seen. We know that our babies are probably terrified from what they’ve experienced. If you do see any of them please contact us through Facebook messenger.
To our customers, vendors and neighbors, we want you to know that appreciate all of the prayers, texts, and visits to the scene today. We felt your love and prayers. This has been the hardest day that Columbia Farm supply has endured in its 25 years of serving Columbia. Please continue to pray for our employees, management, cats, and the store. We have a long road ahead and we hope to recover from this.❤️🩹
