Latest reports state the cause is not suspicious - No place has it mentioned who the owner is.

The farm was owned prior to Ag Venture by Jay & Cathy Boissoneault.  Jay is the son of Giles & Carol (Gaboury) Boissoneault.  You can read more about it from The St. Albans Messenger Web Site:

It's so sad....luckliy Central Vermont has yet to see any barn fires.  Of course there are so few farms here in the area.  On another note, I graduated with Jay.  As far back as I can remember he worked on a farm.
