Mitchell Schulte, AMGA
(Bakersfield, CA)
Judging the FGG Futurity Show 2, FGG Show, Dam & Daughter, and Breeder Trio
Growing up on a farm in the Southern San Joaquin Valley of California allowed Mitchell and his two siblings complete all 10 years of 4-H and FFA.
He and his siblings had numerous champion lambs at the Kern County Fair, California State Fair and Pomona Fairs.
Being a founding member of a local 4-H group allowed his children to follow the same lines, showing sheep and dairy goats with the inclusion of meat goats in the latter years of 4-H.
Serving 10 years on the 15th District Livestock Advisory Board for the Goat Committee allowed him to develop the Market Goat Show at the Kern County Fair.
We are pleased to have Mitchell as our Fall Harvest Judge this year.
