🐔🎡 ANOTHER SUCCESSFUL KVLS POULTRY PICKUP!

The road to the Osceola County Fair is already underway!

On Sunday, the Kissimmee Valley Livestock Show (KVLS) welcomed exhibitors and families for another successful Poultry Production & Auction Hen Pick Up, giving young participants the opportunity to pick up their hens and begin preparing for one of the many longtime agricultural traditions connected to the Osceola County Fair.

Events like this are about much more than raising poultry. Through KVLS, local youth gain hands-on experience in agriculture, animal care, responsibility, record keeping and preparing livestock for show and auction — skills and memories that can last a lifetime.

And it all leads up to Osceola County's largest annual event — the Osceola County Fair, held each year at the Osceola County Fairgrounds at Osceola Heritage Park in .

🎡🐄🐖🐔 From livestock shows and auctions to rides, food, entertainment and family fun, the Fair continues a tradition that brings Osceola County together year after year.

Congratulations to all of the exhibitors who picked up their auction hens Sunday. We’ll see you at the Fair!
