The Matriarchs of the Breed Sale at Me-Do Meadows took place Saturday, August 28th in Orfordville, WI. Managed by Burton & Associates, the sale had an absolutely gorgeous setting at the farm of Doug & Melanie Nifong and it was an absolutely stunner of a day in Wisconsin! After 93 full lots passed through the ring, the unofficial average was $4,628.

Not surprisingly, the top seller was the one that was making the phone ring all week: Lot 1 – R-Z Baxter Caramel (VG-88 88-MS) brought $100,000 once all the bids were in. She is a Baxter daughter of Ralma Goldwyn Carmel-ET (VG-89) and with a +2160 GTPI and +3.35T sold loaded with contracts for embyros and sons. Consigned by Robert Goldmann of New Albin, IA, Caramel is headed to her new owners in Quebec – Danny-Pierre Rondeau, Ferme Gillette and MaryClere Holsteins. Her 1/10 Million daughter with a +2123 GTPI brought $12,300 from Bill & Larry Clayton of Klassic Holsteins in Iowa and her 3/10 Sanchez with a +1968 GTPI was struck off at $6,200.

A First Choice female due in September by Atwood or Goldwyn out of the incomparable Quality-Ridge Stormi Hazel (2E-95) brought $16,600. All-American or HM All-American every year in milking form, Hazel is fresh again and all reports are that she looks great and ready to return to the colored shavings. Consigned by the Hazel Syndicate of Preston, CT, the choice was purchased by All-America Dairy in New York.

$14,400 was the winning bid for another individual that looks to make some noise in the show ring this fall. Whit-Hart Reannan-Red-ET, a 9/08 Rustler-Red out of an EX-92 Regiment dam, was nominated R&W last year as a fall calf. A potential 6th generation EX tracing back through an all-time favorite red cow, Stelbro Renita Ranger-Red (3E-94). Reannan was Junior Champion last week at the Massachusetts Holstein Show for her consignors Todd Whittier & Darcie Hartford and she caught the eye of some Californians as Leo & Chris Durrer, Frank & Diane Borba and Frank & Carol Borba partnered up to purchase her.

A first choice female from three Atwood females due December, 2010 out of 2E-95 MD-Maple-Dell Roy Image sold for $10,000. Image was Reserve All-American Junior 3-Year-Old in 2006 and is herself out of an EX-95 Encore dam. Consigned by the sale hosts, Me-Do Meadows, the choice was purchased by Jimmy Donkers of Branchton, ON.

Prince Edward Island is the place to be this weekend as the Island Heatwave Summer Sale took place today and the Atlantic Summer Show happens tomorrow! The Holstein World’s intrepid field reporter Megan Herberg is on the scene and here is a peek at some images from the show barn in Charlottetown and the site of the sale, Eastside Holsteins.

The Island Heatwave Summer Sale averaged $8,262 on 103 lots – see high selling prices below!

A little background on the shows here in the Maritimes…

Nestled in the northeast corner of North America, the Atlantic Holstein breeders gather at three shows throughout the year – each held in a different province – to showcase their best breeding. The Spring Show is held in April in New Brunswick, the Summer show is in August in Prince Edward Island and the Fall show is in October in Nova Scotia.

Each show brings in about 150 head of the finest heifers and cows. At this year’s summer show, a large majority of the animals in the barns are sired by the Premier Sire of the 2009 International Holstein Show, Braedale Goldwyn.

Lexis Holsteins of Freetown, PEI brings in the Champion of the 2010 Atlantic Spring Showcase – Penlow Geo Integrity EX-95. This impressive aged cow is a Robthom Integrity daughter of the popular All-Canadian show winner Penlow Georgette Outside EX-96 2E.

 

The fitting crew for Eastriver Holsteins works on one of many outstanding individuals that Bruce Wood and family have brought in. Lison Cote, Kevin Johnston and Morgan McGillan are part of the team getting out 16 milk cows, seven of which are senior 2 year olds!

This unique piece of equipment is owned by Atlantic Holstein Promotions and is used at the Summer and Fall shows as the milking parlor.
The cows are tied right to the side of the trailer where 8 cows can be milked at a time. It is also rented out for other shows, sales and is available if a natural disaster occurs. The trailer is funded by many sponsors, government grants and is in memory of Athol Craswell well known PEI Holstein Breeder.

 

Crasdale Farms is located in Hunter River, PEI. Many All-American and All-Canadian nominees have stepped through the barn doors at Crasdale. Owned by Brian and Amber Craswell, Crasdale is managed by herdsman Robert Buoed, as Brian spends a lot of time on the road managing sales. Crasdale Farms focuses on balanced breeding and has brought in a very strong group of heifers and cows. Crasdale Goldwyn Lottomaina is the black cow on the end, a junior two year old daughter of Crasdale Lyster Lottery EX-93.

 

Weeksdale Holsteins is owned and operated by the Weeks family of Pleasant Valley, PEI. Elmer Weeks and his son Blair milk 60 registered Holsteins. They have a strong line up of heifers is headlined by the calf standing in the picture, a Carisma December calf who was 1st at the PEI Premier Heifer show. Another heifer who has been making a mark in the Maritimes show circuit is Colstein Pentegon Unique, a junior yearling that was junior champion at the Premier Heifer show here on the Island earlier this summer.

 

Eastside Gibson Hope is an Mature cow from the host of the Island Heatwave Summer Sale, Eastside Holsteins. Although many of Eastside’s showstring sell today in the sale, Bloyce Thompson still has a strong string of cows for the Summer Show.

Eastside Holsteins welcomes lots of interested buyers and spectators for the Heatwave Summer Sale.

Aside from the animals consigned by Eastside the barn is also full of impressive milkers from the Androscoggin herd.

A nice line up of red cows from Androscoggin made the trip out to the Island.

The Taste of Ontario Tag Sale is currently being held at Cranholme Holsteins in Ancaster, Ontario. An extremely nice lineup of calves, heifers, cows and embryos are being offered through Saturday, July 31st at the farm of Doug, Joan and James Cranston.

The catalog can be viewed online at: ftp://holstein.ca/pub/TASTE_OF_ONTARIO.pdf

The Cranston family milks a herd of Registered Holsteins and also shows Clydesdale horses and runs a farm stand during the summer.

The sale cattle are on display in the barn – an airy, open pack barn built just a few years ago.

Brian Craswell lowered the gavel on the final sale entry for an unofficial average (including embryo packages) of $4,000. More individual results here.
