Question: Hi, Are there any poultry,livestock & sundry auction markets in the Wynyard,Burnie,Stanley or Smithton area?

We have 7 acres of land in Montumana and we’re looking to live a Permaculture life. We would like to build a strawbale home with a dam, rainwater tanks and off grid solar power & wind power.We would also like to buy some livestock from an auction market.Does anyone know where we could find some which sells chickens,ducks,geese,cows,sheep and goats? Thanks Russell & Wendy Goss

Answer: I’m not familiar with anything in that area of the state, all I can suggest is contacting companies like Ruralco/Roberts or Elders they tend to conduct livestock auctions, also people at some local rural markets may be able to give your some guidance
The Advocate would also have listings for livestock on Saturday
