All roads lead to Webberville, Michigan for the Ri-Val-Re Select sale on June 15th. With things set up at the farm and the cattle looking their best, the Jorgensons welcomed a crowd last evening to preview the cattle and enjoy some food, fellowship and live music.
The tent was full and the buyers were ready to bid as the cattle sold well under a blue sky and a beautiful day. The sale began with the selling of a donation from Trans Ova Genetics. They donated an IVF cycle with reverse sorted semen, a $1300 value with the proceeds to be given to the Michigan Junior Holstein Association. Dan Brandt purchased the IVF cycle for $1300.
