Sheep producers are encouraged to select fleeces to enter in the wool fleece show that is held in conjunction with EHE Montana Seed Show held in Harlem, Montana on March 9th in the Harlem High School Auditorium.
The fleece competition will be held on Thursday, March 9th. Judging of the fleeces will begin at 1 p.m. and entries will be taken between the hours of 9 to 12:30 of that same day.
There is both youth and adult divisions with 21 categories and a $100.00 cash prize will be given to bother adult and youth in purebred and commercial divisions.
The judge is always more than glad to answer questions while judging and welcomes people to come and watch. Comment sheets are used and are attached to all fleeces that are entered in the show.
Tyler Lane, extension agent from Fort Benton will be our judge. More specific information is available to the Montana Seed Show catalog or by contacting Sandra Miller at 357-4121.
Fleeces may also be mailed to Sandra Miller, 620 Miller Road, Harlem, Montana 59526 and they will be returned postage paid following the show.
Don’t forget to mark the 9th of March on your calendars for the wool fleece show in Harlem, Montana.
Pie Contest
It’s almost time to dust off the winning pie recipe for the 68th annual Montana Seed show.
This year the event will be held at Harlem High School, March 9, 10, & 11th. Once again there will be an adult division and a youth division, so everyone is encouraged to enter.
Pies can be entered from 8:30 until 9:30 on Friday morning in the big gym. A few things to remember when entering your pie is that everything is to be homemade, no pre made pie fillings or pie crusts.
The pies must also have a top and bottom crust to be eligible. Once again we have very generously donated prizes for the adult and youth divisions.
The adult category 1st place is a pottery pie plate and $400.00 cash from the R.T. “Bob” Rassmussen Memorial, 2nd $300.00 from Columbia Grain, 3rd $200.00 from Harlem Lumber, 4th $100.00 from The Bank of Harlem.
Youth 1st is $75.00, 2nd $50.00, and 3rd $25.00. Thank you to these businesses and people for their continuing support.
A full list of rules in the Seed Show book can be obtained at Blaine, Phillips or Hill County Extension offices, Clothing Co., Bank of Harlem or Richman Insurance in Harlem. Hope to see you at the Seed Show.
