LYNDEN, WA (MyBellinghamNow.com) – A fire at a Darigold facility in Lynden caused over $1 million in damages last week.
The Lynden Fire Department says a “significant” fire broke out at a dryer in Darigold’s powdered milk facility in the early morning hours of Wednesday, March 26. The department says the fire impacted the facility’s processing plant and caused roughly $1.5 million in damages.
But Darigold tells My Bellingham Now that the facility’s fire suppression system limited the rest of the fire’s impact.
The company says there was no structural damage to the building or dryer, and no one was injured.
The affected dryer is expected to resume production shortly.
