- Animal Nursery. The Animal Nursery is shaping up to have a huge array of animals to view and pat, including; chicken hatching, ducks, turkeys, Californian quail, miniature goats, guinea pigs, lambs, piglets, rabbits, miniature horses and alpacas.
- Sheep Section. Provides a variety of sheep breeds on displays and exhibitions for the amusement and education of the public in the field of primary industry.
- Fleece Section. Wool fleeces are gathering from around the district to be judged and vie for the perpetual trophy for Grand Champion Fleece. This trophy is named in honour of Show Life Member Mr Tom Talbot. We imagine it will be displayed with some pride as our wool display t the Longford Show is of a quality equal to any show in Australia.
