N.C. Angus Association Prepares for the 38th Annual Spring Fever Sale

By SHARON ROGERS, Executive Secretary, NCAA

The N.C. Angus Association, consignors, and sale manager Zach Moffitt are busy planning for the upcoming 38th Annual Spring Fever Sale. The 2022 sale will be held at the Shuffler Farm Sale Facility in Union Grove, N.C., on April 23.

Sale manager Zach Moffitt has been busy traveling all across North Carolina and Virginia to see consignors and view their sale offerings. Moffitt reports, “I have seen some outstanding consignments, and I am looking forward to working with this group of passionate Angus breeders to showcase their cattle in the Spring Fever Sale. Buyers should be excited about the quality of cattle being offered.” Angus enthusiasts from across our state and the country can also view and purchase from this sale by logging into CCI.live for the auction.

The sale committee is excited for the 2022 sale to build on the success of the 2021 event, which drew a record number of attendees and sold cattle into six states. Consignors are offering fall pairs with fancy heifer calves, always a favorite, along with a great selection of spring pairs, bred heifers, open heifers, and embryos. Most of the females in this sale are distinguished by their pedigree, their EPD profile, the calf at their side, or by the calf they are carrying by some of the most prominent industry leading sires. All females in the sale will be A.I. sired, and bred heifers must be A.I. sired, A.I. bred, have a repro tract score, and a pelvic measurement. Plus, all cattle will sell with genomic enhanced expected progeny differences (GE-EPDs).

Sale consignors include 3S Farm, 4K Farms/Tarheel Angus, Black Cedar Angus, Carson Family Farm, Chapman Cattle Company, Chase Angus, Crescent Angus Farm, Daltons on the Sycamore, Dancing Pedlar Farm, Fulcher Farms, Gentry Homeplace Angus, Hi-Lo Farms, Hill Angus Farm, Hidden Hills Angus Farm, Panther Creek Farms, Raines Angus Farm, River Bend Ranch, S&J Farms, Scarlett Farms, Shelton Angus Farm, Shuffler Farm, Walkers Branch Angus, and Windy Hill Farms.

Watch for your sale catalog in the mail in early April. The catalog should be on our website at www.ncangus.org in early April as well. If you’re not on our mailing list, please give the office a call at 336-583-9630 or send an email to ncaa. sec@gmail.com, and we will add you to our mailing list. Please contact Zach Moffitt at 336-736-6340 or any member of the Spring Fever Sale Committee with any questions regarding the sale.

Mark your calendar to come be a part of this year’s Spring Fever Sale on April 23 at the Shuffler Farm Sale Facility in Union Grove.
