BUILD YOUR HERD. BUILD YOUR FUTURE.

The 2026–2027 Georgia Junior Herd Builder Program is here!

Open to Georgia cattlemen and women in grades 8–12, this UGA Extension program gives juniors the opportunity to develop a pen of three heifers while gaining hands-on experience in herd management, leadership, decision-making, and stewardship.

And this year, the program has a new timeline! The Junior Herd Builder schedule now aligns with the Georgia Cattlemen’s Beef Futurity, creating an exciting opportunity for participants to connect their herd-building experience with one of Georgia’s biggest junior beef events.

📅 Registration deadline November 4, 2026.

Check out the full program timeline and overview on the GJCA webpage link in the comments! 👇🏻
