Barn of Dreams is a local group of individuals who are looking to better serve the youth of Jackson County who exhibit livestock by fundraising to build a new livestock pavilion on the Jackson County Fairgrounds in the heart of Eastern Iowa.

One of the things we have seen on this fundraising journey has been individuals and businesses supporting our project and then sharing our dream with others and by doing so generate more support! We can't thank Bobby Mitchell of Maquoketa Feeds enough for his generous donation and then bringing Hubbard Feeds on board with him to support our project.

If you have ever fed a project for the Jackson County Fair (sheep, goats, poultry, rabbits, dairy, bucket bottle, pigs, beef, horse, dog or cat) over the past, uh.... 50ish years, chances are Bobby loaded your feed and answered questions about how to optimize your feed and maximize your project at some point in your 4-H or FFA career. Grateful for his service to Jackson County and 4-H and FFA member's projects over the years and today, we are especially grateful for his and Hubbard Feeds support of our Barn of Dreams project.

Need something fun to do with the kids this weekend with the beautiful weather? May we suggest heading to St. Donatus and checking out the Corn Maze behind the Gehlen Barn?! What a fun experience and all proceeds help us build the barn.

Did we mention Saturday was a huge day for us? The generous individuals at Bellevue State Bank stepped up big and presented us a with a check for $50,000 at the beginning of our fundraiser event!

We are so incredibly grateful to individuals and businesses like Bellevue State Bank who kindly step up and support our youth, agriculture and Jackson County! The benefits of this building are endless and we are so thankful to be $50,000 closer to 2 million! Thanks so much BSB, it means the world!

If we are being completely honest- you have left us speechless! Saturday was nothing short of amazing on every level and we know thank you will never be enough- but thank you! Thank you to everyone who attended, who bought dinner tickets, bid and bought on live auction and silent auction items, donated and simply showed up - it was breath taking to see so many people who believe in our dream too!

Our turnout was amazing- we served over 525 meals, we had over 40 silent auction items and over 50 live auction lots and we are absolutely thrilled to share we raised over $50,000 Saturday evening at our inaugural Steak & Legacy Dinner! 💙💙💙

It’s go time- we have steaks grilled and ready to see you! Serving until 8:30 with the live auction starting at 7. Hope to see you this evening!

Today's the day!!!

In case you needed anymore convincing listen to Houston, he does a great job sharing his thoughts and what so many 4-H and FFA members think too. We do feel bad he won't be able to use any of the new facilities as a member but know he will enjoy them when he comes back for a few more years to help his sister.

We hope to see you tonight at the Jackson County Fairgrounds to build our legacy!
