Junior Livestock Show
Virtual Event
The 74th Annual Junior Livestock Show
July 10-12, 2022
The Junior Livestock Show, a summer tradition in Central New York, will take place in-person this year (however, due to the ever-evolving nature of the COVID-19 situation, the event is subject to change).
More than 160 youth handlers and 450 animals from a nine-county region will be included in this year’s modified shows. The event truly is a celebration of youth in agriculture as it tests the skills of youth handlers ages eight to eighteen who present animals (dairy cows, beef, swine, dairy goats, meat goats and sheep of various breeds) that they own, care for, and have prepared for competition.
Since 1947, The Farmers’ Museum has collaborated with the Cooperative Extension’s 4-H program to produce the show. It is conducted in cooperation with Cornell Cooperative Extension County 4-H educators and clubs throughout central New York. On-site services provided by the Leatherstocking Corporation. The show is sponsored in part by Chobani.
