Junior Livestock Auction Update

With the new guidelines released this week by Governor Gavin Newsom and Cal-OSHA, the Mother Lode Fair is working to make updates to the 2021 Fair and Junior Livestock Auction.

We know the Community has a concern and passion for a Live Animal Auction for both Large and Small Animals. Possible plans may be formulated to cover all concerns including the safety and welfare of patrons/exhibitors.
