to the 2015 Land of Lincoln Sale hosted at Diamond A Farms in Altamont, Illinois!
We want to start of by welcoming breeders from Illinois and across the country to the Diamond A sale facility for the 16th
Land of Lincoln sale. The sale group has had many successful sales over the years however this year the quality is even
stronger than ever. Yes, study the catalog and the videos and I think you will be impressed. I encourage you to make the trip
to Altamont or call or even be online. The Simmental genetics across the country is strong and the Land of Lincoln group
continues to raise the bar by breeding and developing quality seed stock to meet the needs of the Simmental business and
customers across the country.
With that being said we would like to acknowledge again that the Land of Lincoln has always been a great location to select
your next show prospect for not only the AJSA shows but for any show in the state of Illinois or across the country. The show
prospects are high quality and extremely consistent. Again the whole offering is strong with a top notch set of bred females
coming to you safe in calf to leading bulls in the Simmental breed. This is the 16th annual Land of Lincoln sale and the group is
definitely not slowing down any. The Land of Lincoln group appreciates all their past customers however welcomes any new or
interested party to stop by and take a look sale day. Many show heifers from last years sale won banners and championships
and working for those new owners. The Land of Lincoln offers congratulations to Koty Allen and Shelby Roth on their last
years high selling open. Thanks to all those show heifer purchasers and the breeders who took home those outstanding breds
that were calved out and went on to make money.
I invite you to thumb thru the catalog upon arrival and call any of the breeders if you have questions. Also, I encourage you to
stop by their respective locations prior to sale week. Again this year the office and shop will be utilized on Friday for hospitality
and the pre–sale lunch on Saturday plus office area for the sale. We appreciate all the Alwardt crew sale week for their
hospitality and opening up their facility for the one of the premier sales in Illinois, the Land of Lincoln. If Drew, Holli or I can be
of assistance with any of your purchases or answer any questions don’t hesitate to call at anytime. See you at the Diamond A
location for the sale.
