**********Quick Update **********
The Fair President and another member had reached out to me and we definitely have a full understanding to all of the wrong information that was being said. I feel that the President did a great job on clearing the air up in this whole matter. These are the type of people I look forward to working with in the future .
I would also like to thank each and everyone that had shown support for all of the Reed’s family during this time.

As I finally got a chance to sit down and toss some pork chops on the bbq pit and maybe partake in an adult beverage, I’m sitting here looking out at my cows eating without one worry in the world. These animals rely heavily on me to take care of them, just as my employees do.
I started receiving calls from people that were really upset with me thinking that I was really low balling the youth of East Montgomery County Fair. I had no clue what they were talking about and I chalked it up to people just being delusional. I then had people making comments to me at the sale on Saturday night. Again, I had zero clue as to what was going on.
So here we are on Monday, a few days after the sale, and we have started receiving calls about some animals that we do not have. Fast forward to later in the afternoon, I’m now receiving the same phone calls stating that they have gotten a call asking questions about how they wanted their animals processed from another processor.
So here we are trying to defend our name against something that had taken place without any knowledge to Reed’s Meat Processing.
We never would offer a ridiculous price for animals that we know cost quite a bit of money, plus feed!!!! We have always been fair on what we would offer to the youth.
Sorry for the long post. I know how to move forward as Reed’s has steadily been fighting to keep supporting the youth of EMC.
Please share this post to help make the community aware that we were completely unaware of all of this!
Yes, we will be back next year to support the youth!!!
Sincerely Reed’s
