KNOXVILLE, Tenn. (WVLT) -- Knoxville Firefighters put a small mulch fire Friday at the same spot of a large mulch fire in March.

Firefighters arrived at Shamrock Organics off Ailor Ave. in Knoxville after 4:30 a.m. to find smoke from a small mulch fire.

Firefighters told us the fire would not be anything to worry about, and that they've put out similar fires at the same location several times before the big mulch fire in March.

An equipment operator from the company was expected to arrive at the scene Friday morning to turn over the mulch, helping put out the fire.
