Welcome to my market project! Here you will get to follow my progress of raising my market goat and pig for the Jr. Livestock auction, August 10th 2024, at the Clark County Fairgrounds. I am so excited to show again and I hope to see you all at the ring!!!
❤️ THANK YOU TO MY 2023 BUYERS!! ❤️
Both my sister and my market goats did not meet the rate of gain this year. If you are interested in still obtaining some goat meat please contact me. We will be processing our goats in about another month and would be selling the meat at a discounted price. Our hope is to recoup as much of our expenses as possible so we can continue to raise more animals next year for the JLA and for the YEAH (Youth Efforts Against Hunger) program.

Why goat meat?
Here are some reasons I think you should eat goat meat.
1.Goat meat is low in fat (leaner then beef, pork or lamb)
2. Goat meat is low in cholesterol
3. Packed full of vitamins
4. High level of iron
5. Goats are good for the planet

JLA Add ON: how to support me without being a buyer!
If you are not wanting to be a buyer but still interested in financially supporting my market project, become an ADD ON. Sending me money is very nice of you, but all the funds need to be documented through the Jr. Livestock Auction. There are a few goals I need to meet before I make it to the Auction on Saturday the 12th.
SO, how do you become an ADD ON? Follow the link options below to either download, print and mail in your Add On form or complete the form online. Thank you again for your generosity and support in my project.

- I need to make weight of gain by Wednesday August 9th 2023 of 21lbs (between June 3rd and August 9th).
- I need to place in the Market Show on Wednesday August 9th with a blue ribbon for either or both of my market goats. That guarantees a placement for me and my goats at the auction on Saturday August 13th!
