Organizers are hoping that improvements made to this year’s show and general optimism in the industry will give attendance a boost

The Junior Barrow Show is returning this year to the Ontario Pork Congress, being held June 19 and 20 at the Rotary Complex in Stratford.

In the past, the show was always held two weeks ahead of the congress due to biosecurity concerns, says pork congress president Adam Rae. This time, the show is being held on the second day of the congress, Canada’s largest pork-specific trade show, so anyone concerned about biosecurity can come on the first day, June 19.
