A fire has damaged Wisconsin’s largest dairy farm. WLUK-TV reports the fire tore through one of the barns at Rosendale Dairy near the Fond du Lac-Winnebago County line around 2:20 p.m. on Oct. 16. Bill Harke is a spokesman for Milk Source LLC, which owns Rosendale Dairy and several other area dairy farms. He says the fire started when a piece of farm equipment sparked and spread to grain in the barn. Harke says the fire’s damage includes an estimated $500,000 in feed and the commodity shed, which has an estimated value between $500,000 and $1 million.
