How to Buy FAQ
Provincial Winter Fair is one of the few unique agricultural shows that feature a live auction of market beef & lambs shown during the fair by 4-H and Open Single Contributors!
We are once again planning an on-site auction. Once again, auctioneers from BC Livestock Co-Op will conduct the auction, and buyers can attend and bid in person (or contact one of our bid-takers in advance to purchase on your behalf).
The auction takes place Monday, September 22, 2025, following a parade of 2025 PWF Champions! Spectators choose the animal they wish to buy, then bid their price to fill their freezer for the coming winter. The catalogue will be available on our website, and sale order will be posted Sunday evening prior to the sale.
Please watch this space for updates and email us for more information about purchasing inquiries and assistance.
