TEMPLE, TX â Shelby Michalewiczâs heart dropped in the isle of Loweâs when she saw the price it would cost for a single piece of plywood.
âAll I left with was a broken heart,â she admitted. âI couldn t afford to get anything that day.â
Since the onset of the pandemic, she explained that her funds were low.
Then, when winter storm Uri hit and damaged some of the structures on her farm, they now need to be repaired.
However, the price of lumber and building supplies are keeping her from doing just that along with starting new projects.
