A supportive workshop for small holders who want to buy and sell livestock confidently – from first time purchasers to those already moving animals on and off their property

Event details:

Join Greater Sydney Local Land Services for a confidence building workshop designed to help small holders navigate the buying and selling of livestock - whether you’re looking at purchasing your very first cow or already moving animals on and off your property.

Experts will be on board to break down the essentials into clear, practical steps and also share tips that make livestock purchases and sales smoother and more successful.

You will leave this workshop feeling capable, informed and ready to approach livestock purchases and sales with clarity and confidence.
