All exhibitors, except beef cattle, must bring their own bedding during the Fair. Livestock exhibitors are also expected to bring their own feed – additional feed and bedding will not be available for purchase during the Fair.
As part of the bedding project, beef cattle exhibitors will be provided Premium Missouri Mulch bedding. The cost of the mulch bedding is included in the price of the beef cattle entries. There will be no seperate fees.
No other bedding will be allowed for beef cattle including sawdust, pellets, etc.
Dairy cattle exhibitors may continue adding straw to the bedding. All exhibitors should practice good environmental stewardship, keeping the bedding clean and free of glass, plastics, cans and other trash for the purposes of the Fair’s recycling agreement.
