Osceola county fire crews worked for hours to control a fire that tore through two acres of pallets of plastic planters at a local nursery.
Over six dozen firefighters and nearly two dozen vehicles from the Osceola County Fire Rescue, Kissimmee Fire Rescue, and other local departments responded to Nursery Supplies, Inc. in Kissimmee on Thursday, February 16, after receiving reports of a massive fire.
Emergency personnel worked for hours to contain the fire, which spanned two acres and spread through a series of pallets holding plastic planters.
After getting the fire contained just before 3 p.m., crews established air monitoring devices in preparation of potentially issuing evacuation orders. Hazmat and Florida Department of Environmental Protection units also responded to the scene.
No injuries were reported as a result of the blaze.
