First of all, we would like to thank all you who sent letters or made calls to the effect that we liked the order of previous years and would like that schedule to remain in effect for 2021.

Dairy Avenue of Breeds display will be at the fair Aug. 27 – Sept. 6 featuring milking demonstrations and promotion of dairy industry & products.
We know this schedule is different than in the past but hopefully, we can work together and really showcase the dairy industry and products we produce.
If anyone has ideas for promotion/showcasing the dairy industry, please let us know. We are fortunate to work with Tracy & Chris, Midwest Dairy, and planning is in motion.
