Our Mission:
The primary objective of the Pierce County Livestock project is to educate members and provide them with a "real world", hands on experience that will not only teach them life skills but will also teach them proper herd management, animal health and feeding techniques so that they may learn the necessary skill set to produce quality animals for the consumer.

The Pierce County 4-H Livestock Committee

The Pierce County 4-H Livestock Committee is a group of volunteers working together to provide this project for youth in both 4-H & FFA. Livestock Committee meetings are held the 4th Monday of each month at 7pm. See the 'Committee' tab for more information.

Current Livestock Opportunities & Events

It's time to get signed for your Fair entries! 
Deadline: June 23, 2026

Fair enrollment is open! Please be sure to get signed up! Any animals you plan to bring must be entered in the Fair.
A Couple of helpful suggestions from the Fair Office:
  • Get signed up sooner rather than later! The system bogs down & runs slowly when lots of people are trying to enter at once. Signing up ahead of the deadline will prevent any issues.
  • Don't use your phone! Instead consider using a laptop or PC. Phones tend to time out & create issues.
  • If you have questions reach out to the Fair Office at 715.273.6874
