Autumn Rare Breeds Show and Sale - 9th October 2021
Spring Rare Breeds Sale - Cancelled
We are sorry to confirm the cancellation of this years Spring Rare Breed Sale which we are sure will come as no surprise. We look forward to things returning to normal and the return of the 34th Rare Breed Autumn Show & Sale.
Subject to Government Covid Restrictions
There are 2 Rare Breeds sales held here each year both of which are run and managed in conjunction with the Rare Breeds Survival Trust and with the help of their York centre support group.
The main autumn sale takes place on a Saturday in early October and is one of the largest and longest running sales in the country with the first sale dating back to 1986. This sale also has show competitions attached to it for certain breeds.
The annual spring sale was first held in 2003 and takes place on a Saturday in late April.
Both sales include a wide range of rare and minority breeds of cattle, sheep and pigs as well as a fabulous entry of poultry and waterfowl.
