Herd Builder Sale
Some of the best genetics in the Limousin business have made their way through the sale ring at Pinegar Limousin . The females and herd sires have gone on to be production champions for their new owners .
Pinegar Limousin held its 28th Annual Herd Builder Sale on March 19 , 2022 , at the farm near Springfield . The Pinegar is known for digging deep into the replacment pens , letting go of some of the genetics at the heart of the program .
Annually , the sale features spring bred heifers , fall bred heifers , fall pairs , December and January pairs , and show heifer prospects .

Ed Pinegar ’ s Limousin Legacy
Whether he was running his businesses , spending time with family , or making decisions at the farm ; Ed poured his heart and soul into it . “ He was very passionate about whatever he was doing ,” Ty reflected .
Ed Pinegar spent decades promoting the Limousin breed . He loved cattle and the people in the cattle industry . He was especially compelled to help and encourage juniors and their families . He started an offer at his sales more than 10 years ago , that remains today :
If a junior purchases a show animal from Pinegar Limousin , the farm pays its entry fee for Junior Nationals and picks up the weeklong hotel bill for the youth and their family .
Though the captain of Pinegar Limousin is no longer at the helm , his philosophies still guide the ship . The course has been set and Pinegar Limousin plans to continue operations in a way that honors Ed ’ s legacy . Pinegar Limousin moves into the future with one of the leading Limousin herds in North America and with the passion of its founder .
