4-H Show Season Continues With Mohawk Valley Show and Sale – Ag Matters

School may be back in session, but there is one more 4-H show. Cornell Cooperative Extension's NYS 4-H Youth Development Program  will host the Mohawk Valley Show and Sale this Saturday at the Herkimer County Fairgrounds.

This an opportunity for Oneida, Herkimer, and Madison County 4-H members to bring their livestock and dairy 4-H projects for a chance to be evaluated by local judges. The livestock members also have the chance to sell their market animal projects of hogs, lambs and beef or dairy steers in the auction at 5 pm. This is an exciting new program to Oneida, Herkimer and Madison counties with last year being the first year. 4-H members must raise their projects, keep health and expense records, track animal growth, and find buyers for their project animals.
