Northeast Livestock Exposition

Our Mission:

The mission of the Northeast Livestock Exposition (NELE) is to provide marketing, selling, and educational opportunities to local livestock producers and educate the public on the connection between local farms and their products.

History:

In 2006, the Maine Beef Producers, Boer Goat Breeders of Maine and the Maine Sheep Breeders Association collaborated to create a multi-specie event that would help livestock breeders promote the genetic advancement of various breeds. Over the years, several other organizations have lent their support to expand the Expo to include equine, rabbits and fiber animals. Windsor Fairgrounds has allowed NELE to hold its event on the grounds since it first started.

The Expo continues to incorporate various aspects of agriculture during the third weekend each May.
