Wedel Auction & Real Estate is preparing for a large consignment auction on Saturday, May 9 at 10 a.m. at 413 S Bluestem Road in Leon, Kansas, at a new location across from the school.

 Farm and construction families in south‑central Kansas will have a new reason to circle their calendars this spring. Wedel Auction & Real Estate is preparing for a large consignment auction on Saturday, May 9 at 10 a.m. at 413 S Bluestem Road in Leon, Kansas, at a new location across from the school. The upcoming sale brings together an extensive range of equipment, vehicles, tools, and farm support items, offering buyers a rare chance to upgrade their operations and find hard‑to‑locate pieces in one place.

This auction is being promoted as a partial listing, with more consignments expected by sale day. Early highlights already reflect the diversity of the offering. Tractors, skid loaders, and excavators from well‑known manufacturers such as John Deere, Case IH, New Holland, Kubota, and Mahindra are scheduled to cross the block, alongside ATVs and UTVs suited for ranch work and acreage. The inventory also includes hay and forage equipment, loaders, mowers, livestock handling equipment, and a semi load of attachments—indicating strong interest from both retiring owners and producers reorganizing their fleets.

Beyond tractors and implements, the sale will feature a range of vehicles, trailers, and trucks, including late‑model pickups, service vehicles, and equipment haulers. Shop and yard tools, grain handling equipment, and various miscellaneous items round out the lineup, making the event appealing to everyone from full‑time farmers to small‑acreage landowners and contractors. With Wedel Auction & Real Estate planning to run two auction rings, attendees are encouraged to bring a friend and plan for a full day.

Wedel’s team notes that consignment lists are still growing and that the bill was printed several weeks in advance, so last‑minute additions are expected. Buyers who want the most current information are encouraged to follow Wedel Auction & Real Estate on Facebook and check online listings for updates. For many in the region, this May 9 consignment auction in Leon represents an efficient opportunity to buy, sell, and network with fellow producers just ahead of the summer season.
