Fayette County Farm Bureau equipment auction set

Special to Kentucky Agricultural News

The 27th Annual Fayette County Farm Bureau Farm Equipment Consignment Auction will take place at the Kentucky Horse Park on Saturday, March 20 beginning at 9:30 A.M.

This annual auction not only is a great place for producers to find equipment, but it is also the main fund raiser for the Fayette County Farm Bureau Education Foundation.  All proceeds from the auction go toward the Fayette County scholarship program. Since 1993, the Fayette County Farm Bureau has given out 25 scholarships to high school seniors, awarding a total of $500,000 in scholarship money.

Tractors, boats, hay balers, trailers, and a wide array of farm, lawn and garden equipment will be on sale at the auction. 

Fayette County Farm Bureau will begin accepting equipment for the auction at the Horse Park on Thursday, March 18 and continue on Friday, March 19.  No equipment will be accepted for sale on the day of the auction. 

A $5 parking fee will be charged by the Horse Park the day of the sale. For more information, contact Carrie Johnson at the Fayette County Farm Bureau by calling (859) 253-0023.
