North Farm Auction Sets Dispersal of Grainsey Herd
The prize winning Grainsey Guernsey herd at North Farm will be sold at a dispersal auction on August 3, signaling a sale after a fire damaged Worth Farm’s three section barn on April 21. Clifford McBride heads the herd’s ownership but was unavailable for comment. Reconstruction at Worth Farm is expected to be extensive, with some buildings still standing. The 125 head herd has set national records with the American Guernsey Cattle Club.
