For those who have sheep and goats: the first case of Scrapie the United States has seen in 5 years was detected in Oregon. This article highlights the importance of traceability of our animals and proper recordkeeping. This is why we require Scrapie tags in your sheep and goats.

Through the “Bid. Buy. Donate.” Program, supporting local agriculture and helping food banks has never been easier! The 4-H/FFA Livestock Sale will be at the Jefferson County Fair, Brookville, PA on Thursday, July 23 at 7 p.m. in the red show barn.

Every year, dedicated youth put hard work into raising and showcasing their livestock at county fairs across PA. Through the "Bid. Buy. Donate." program, you can help support the next generation of agriculture while providing high-quality, in-demand protein to local food banks. Every animal donated from our livestock sale will be used at the Brookville Area Food Pantry to help local families in need. Meatheads Market will be our processor for donated animals.

This summer, make a lasting impact on your community by attending the 4-H/FFA Livestock Sale at the Jefferson County Fair on Thursday, July 23, bidding on livestock, and donating it to your local food bank or pantry to provide nutritious protein for our neighbors who need it the most. You'll also be supporting our hard-working next generation of farmers and ag supporters and helping to keep Jefferson County's farming legacy alive and thriving!
