Thank You to Our 2022 Livestock Buyers for a Record-breaking Year!

Drumroll please! 🥁 The numbers are officially in for the 2022 Livestock Auction and Sales, which took place both Saturdays of The Big Fresno Fair! A total of 806 lots of animals went through this year’s auctions and brought in a grand total of $1.4 million in sales and add-ons – making 2022 a record-breaking year! WOW! We are so amazed and proud of all of our hard-working 4-H, FFA and Independent exhibitors who participated in this year’s sale! 🐮🐷🐑🐐🐰🐔

 

Thank you to all of our buyers who supported the sales! You have positively impacted the lives of our 4-H, FFA and Independent students by supporting their animal projects and our overall sales! You are one of the bright lights in our community! We can’t wait to beat this year’s sales record in 2023 with your help! 👏

 

If you’ve never been to or supported our annual Jr. Livestock Auctions, we highly encourage you to do so! Money well-spent for a great cause! 🐄💲🐑
