Past Sales

The New England SUPER SWISS National Sale

Celebrating the Past and Embracing the Future

July 2, 2021—Three County Fairgrounds—Northampton, MA

Modern Associates, St. Paris, OH - The New England SUPER SWISS National Sale averaged $5,580 when the final tally was made on 50 lots selling in this successful event. Buyers from 19 states, from Maine to California and Alaska to Florida made the offering truly national in scope as well as in quality.

In keeping with “Celebrating the Past theme,” The Three County Fairgrounds in Northampton, MA served as the setting for the presale social and cattle viewing on Thursday afternoon and the sale on Friday, July 2. Balchem Animal Health and Nutrition sponsored the presale gathering and refreshments for convention goers and potential buyers. This historic fairground had provided the venue for Brown Swiss sales of the past including the famous Diamond Jubilee Sale held in 1955.

The sale was sponsored by the New England Brown Swiss Association and was the final activity for National Convention week. Modern Associates managed the event with Adam Fraley as the auctioneer and Wayne Sliker, boxman. Brian Garrison, Lee Barber and Norman Magnussen took bids from an active crowd. Cowbuyer provided the online bidding option with Modern Associates clerks. The consignments were expertly presented in the ring by Ashlynn Foster, Hayden Pike, Brooke Clark, Laylah Clark and Adele Biasini.

The very hot and humid week made cattle preparation a difficult task for the talented barn crew that included Dale Bendig, Andrew Evans, Jack Cliffe, Dalton Freeman, Jordan Stookey, Jonathon Hubbard and Mike Mott. A rainy sale day provided some relief for both cattle and people.

Here are the high-selling consignments for the day:
