Hosted by Little Creek Farms, Mikell and Mary Cheek Davis, with guest consignors, the interest was extremely strong from the US, Canada, Mexico and Brazil. Successful buyers from Canada and 14 US states that included Mississippi, Georgia, Alabama, Texas, North Carolina, Kentucky, West Virginia, Missouri, Illinois, Arkansas, Kansas, Michigan, Wisconsin, and South Carolina demonstrated the demand for quality Full Fleckvieh Genetics.
