In just a few short days, 2005 World Dairy Expo Supreme Champion Lavander Ruby Redrose-Red EX 96 will be celebrating her 14th birthday in her boxstall at Rosedale in Oxford, WI. In celebration of the grand old dame's special day, Mark & Nicky Rueth will be opening their doors for an open house and birthday party, and offering up a choice of nearly everything on the farm (no...you can't have her, Redrose will be staying put...) March 19th is the big day, and the doors will open at 9am for the celebration, with the tag sale officially commencing at noon. The sale will continue through the 22nd, and Mark & Nicky invite you to join them, give Redrose a birthday scratch on the head and take home your own blooming rose after a long and bleak winter.
Here is just a taste of the offerings to be had when during the tag sale. Rosedale will also be hosting the classifier on Monday, March 17th. Check back to Dairy Agenda Today to see the highlights.
