As we gear up for the 2026 USTFA Fall Conference in Twin Falls, Idaho (September 15–17), we are officially calling on our members, partners, and industry friends to help make our signature event a success.

Our annual auction is more than just a fun tradition, it is a vital lifeline for our industry. Every single dollar raised directly funds the United States Trout Farmers Association’s critical advocacy, research support, and educational outreach programs that protect and advance trout farming nationwide.

We need your help to build an incredible lineup of items for this year’s bidding!

What Can You Donate?

We are looking for a diverse range of items to excite our bidders. Popular donations include:

• Industry & Farm Gear: Specialized aquaculture tools, water testing kits, farm equipment, or innovative feed products
• Unique Experiences: Guided fishing trips, outdoor excursions, vacation rentals, or custom travel packages.
• Everyday Goodies: High-quality outdoor apparel, gourmet gift baskets, custom metalwork, art, or artisan trout-related gear.

No item is too big or too small – every contribution directly translates to stronger representation and better resources for trout producers across the country.
