More than 100 of the animals at Saturday's Junior Livestock Show were sold to Salt Lake County, which is sending the animals off to be processed, packaged and delivered to the Utah Food Bank.
“[When] you give a kid who's going through some trauma an animal, something to love and something to take care of, there's a change in them," said Anderson, a former 4-H member and Miss Utah USA.
“Just because you don't live on a farm or you don't have land that would allow you to raise an animal, doesn't mean you can't be a part of it," said Anderson. “They're literally getting the best meat they possibly can because the way the kids raise these animals," Anderson said."They are the best steers, the best hogs, the best sheep, the best goats."
“When we spend our money, we the County, and buy the animals that are for auction, we send them to the process house with a direction that when you've processed it and turned it into packaged meat, send it to the Utah Food Bank," he said.
