Beef Counts was launched in Washington state in 2010 with the help of many producer volunteers, Agri Beef and the Washington State Beef Commission. Washington beef producers can be involved by making donations during the Annual Rollover Auction in October and throughout the year by volunteering with Second Harvest to distribute donated beef to their hungry neighbors in need.
