WPS Farm Show

March 24-26, 2026

The WPS Farm Show held at the EAA grounds in Oshkosh, WI is a wonderful show to attend for all farming operations from large to small and especially those just starting out. There are four large heated buildings and a large heated tent full of business exhibitors from fencing, chutes, cattle fly control, insurance, trailers, and so much more! In the middle of all the buildings is a food tent where we, as an association, will be serving bison burgers and burritos and walking tacos. Other food venders inside the tent with us include the WI Cattlemen, WI potato growers the Winnebago Co Dairymen, and a pizza stand.

In order to make this fundraiser of ours successful, we need volunteers such as yourself to help out! About 15 people per day, per shift, is ideal to make this event the most efficient and successful. Jobs include, but are not limited to, grilling, assembling burgers, burritos and walking tacos, getting orders ready, cashiering, filling the condiment station, mingling with other bison producers, having a good time and more. All ages are welcome!

This year once again the Greater Fond du Lac Agri- Business Council will help us fill work shifts as needed to help both us, and their organization out. The percentage of hours that each association works, is the percentage of income each makes. So, the more help WBPA provides, the more money we can make for the association! This is the only fund raiser we have each year.

Shifts will be ROUGHLY 9am-1pm and 12pm-4pm or all day if you’d like. Parking passes will be sent out to workers as well. Please call or text Melissa Wienkes at (920) 676-7247 if you are able to help out. Hope to see you there!

Also, we will be having a slide show of bison pictures again on a tv for customers to watch while waiting in line. Please email Melissa Wienkes your farm’s bison pictures, farm name and location to mmass08@yahoo.com if you would like to be added to the slide show.
