Jeff Morris, UW-Madison Division of Extension Swine Outreach Specialist, is excited to announce the 2025 Show Pig Symposium. This event will be held Saturday January 11, 2025 at the Chula Vista Resort in the Wisconsin Dells.
The educational program will be held from 10:00 am to 3:00 pm with lunch served at noon. This will be a tremendous opportunity for both swine exhibitors and show pig breeders to gain valuable information on all things Show Pig.
