Dozens of farmworkers have been left temporarily homeless after a fire tore through a worker91ÂãÁÄÊÓƵ™s bunkhouse in Abbotsford Thursday morning.

The fire broke out just before 9:30 a.m. in a building that housed between 60 and 80 employees at Lakeland Flowers, .

All of the workers are accounted for, and the farm91ÂãÁÄÊÓƵ™s owner said they are trying to find them accommodation for Thursday night. The state of the workers91ÂãÁÄÊÓƵ™ possessions is not yet known, and a representative from the Mexican consulate is expected on scene shortly.

Five fire crews responded to the blaze, which belched smoke over Highway 1 but didn91ÂãÁÄÊÓƵ™t significantly impact traffic. Crews were able to knock down the flames fairly quickly upon arriving.

78 Seasonal Agricultural Mexican Workers are safe and are in the process to be relocated to other farms. Consul Hugo Velazquez from the Consulate General of Mexico is on scene.
