The first-ever Big Fresno Fair Virtual Livestock Sale kicks-off on Friday, October 9 at 11 a.m. and goes until Monday, October 12 at 11:59 p.m. The Virtual Livestock sale will feature nearly 500 animals from dedicated and hard-working 4-H and FFA members throughout Fresno County.
Leading up to the sale, we’ll be featuring 4-H & FFA exhibitors from participating chapters to highlight their animal project and all their hard work, while also giving buyers and our community a glimpse of animals they can bid on!
Meet Hannah Rusconi, a Blossom Trail 4-H student who is in 7th grade at Fairmont Elementary. Here’s what Hannah’s advisor had to say about her:
“This is Hannah’s 5th year in 4-H and she is a member of Blossom Trail 4-H club. Hannah is serving her 2nd year on the executive board at Blossom Trail 4-H, this year she was elected to the office of Reporter. Hannah has been going to dairy goat shows since she was little and began showing goats as soon as she could walk around the ring with one. She joined 4-H for the dairy goat project and currently serves as a junior leader for the project. She enjoys teaching others about this animal that she loves.
Hannah and her sister raise a small herd of alpine dairy goats at their home. Hannah works with these goats every day, twice a day. Each morning and evening, she milks, feeds, waters and cleans up after her goats. This year Hannah will be selling a dairy replacement doe in the auction on October 3rd and a dairy market goat in the virtual auction. Hannah’s replacement doe is a Nubian/Oberhasli Recorded Grade dairy goat named Finnola. Her dairy market goat is one that Hannah bred and helped to deliver, he is an alpine named Thor. “
