In a year laden with economic uncertainty, we can’t say it loud enough . . . many thanks to each and every buyer and bidder at the 2021 Junior Fair Livestock Sale for showing your support for our young livestock producers. As you know the Junior Fair Sale is the culmination of months, and for many youth years of dedication and hard work. The purchases of the livestock raised by Fairfield County 4-H and FFA youth not only support the important educational programs of these two youth organizations, but many of these young people use the proceeds from the sale of their animals to fund their next project while also saving money for their college fund.
Sincerely . . . thank you!
