Saint Andrews, N.B.– May 29, 2023 – Cooke Aquaculture has sent trucks, a side-by-side ATV, a support trailer with three high pressure water pumps, sixty communications radio batteries and other relief supplies to help local fire fighters extinguish an out-of-control wildfire near the Town of Saint Andrews.

We thank the brave local fire fighters and first responders, including nearly a dozen Cooke Aquaculture employees who are volunteer fire fighters battling the intense blaze around Saint Andrews to keep community members safe. Charlotte County is home to many of our employees, and we will be supporting any who have been displaced.

Those that have been evacuated are asked not to go back to their homes until further notification. The W.C. O’Neill Arena Complex in Saint Andrews is still open for emergency services and the Red Cross is on-site for support.
