Come for the show and stay for the sale!
We have brought the NCHCA Show and Sale together to make this a centerpoint event for the year. If you have never consigned animals to one of the NCHCA sales in the past, we hope you will consider consigning this year. There is a lot of promotion going into this sale to draw quality buyers. Participating in the sale is a great way to grow awareness of your farm and genetics. Consignments close on August 30, 2026. If you have questions on consigning, you can visit the sale website at HighlandSale.org or email sale@nchca.org.
