Success StoryBeef Expo



Beef Expo

Author: Tyler Miller

Planning Unit: Lincoln County CES

Major Program: Beef

Plan of Work: Agriculture Sustainability and Marketing 2020-24

Outcome: Initial Outcome

I have been working within Extension for 2.5 years and because of COVID-19 i am still attending and hosting new-to-me events. The Lincoln County Beef Expo was held at the fairgrounds after two years of being canceled. This was my first Beef Expo as an Extension Agent and i was thrilled with how it turned out. I helped to organize, plan, and execute the event. With over 150 people in attendance that night and speakers from both the University and the Beef Industry, there was a great opportunity for producers to network and learn. We fed everyone a steak dinner which went over well. From what i have been noticing, it can be a little tough to get this type of participation post COVID. I was very happy with how the event went.
