SALE UPDATE - NEW DATE ADDED
The Teeswater Sheep Breeders' Association has been working hard behind the scenes to ensure that sales will go ahead this year.
Due to Covid-19 issues, Grassroots has cancelled their Annual Traditional and Native Breeds sale at Melton Mowbray.
However on Saturday, 12th September 2020, Melton Mowbray Market is holding a Saturday Spectacular Multi Breed Sale of Pedigree Sheep, incorporating the Midland Texel Club Sale, Beltex Society Sale and registered Wensleydales, Kerry Hills, Border Leicester’s (TBC), Jacobs (TBC) plus other breeds to be confirmed.
The Teeswater Sheep Breeders' Association has been invited to take part, which we have accepted. If you would like to take your sheep, please find attached the entry forms. There are several classes for ewes, rams and lambs. Entries close on Thursday, 20th August 2020.
Melton Mowbray Market is continuing to operate under strict DEFRA guidelines relating to Covid-19 so they can remain open safely. The Regulations change frequently - please check their website for the latest update whether you are selling or going to buy.
The Auctioneers advise that no shows will be able to go ahead unless there is further relaxation of the rules between now and the sale date.
This is a great opportunity for people to buy or sell registered Teeswater sheep outside our native north of England roots.
