BARK RIVER -- A revitalization project in Bark River celebrates its completion.

The National Future Farmers of America Organization Alumni and Campbell Soup Company, along with a couple hundred volunteers, revived the Augie Fudala Family Barn.

At 160 acres, the Fudala Farm originally was a dairy farm and a homestead in the early 1900s.  Over the years, the barn was used to house livestock, horses, and more.

The work was finished over a two-day period, and it was a daunting process, until many forces combined to make it a success.

The Fudala Barn was one of five winners selected by the public through an online vote as part of Campbell's "Help Grow Your Soup" Campaign.

Other winners were in North Carolina, Maryland, Indiana, and Virginia.
