Dinsdale Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 Sorry to see a small farm having to close shop, but good on getting a decent price for the livestock. Enjoy Maine! If you are in the southern end try to get to Kittery Trading Post, decent place to see a few guns and such. Right on RT 1. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doc Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 So was this just a cattle auction, or the whole contents of the farm? Are you all getting out of farming completely? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wooly Posted June 22, 2014 Share Posted June 22, 2014 You'll forget all about those stinky old bovines when you replace them with your heard of freaky racked, monster farm raised whitetails! I hear they're fetching near $10,000 a head! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
