As advocates for the beef industry, we are even more thrilled that Milledgeville Burger Week is moving to May, coinciding with Georgia's Beef Month,” said Caitlin Jackson, the Georgia Cattlemen’s Association Checkoff program coordinator. “This alignment provides a fantastic opportunity to spotlight beef as a wholesome, nutritious, and sustainable protein choice for consumers, while celebrating our hardworking farmers and ranchers who raise high- quality beef right here in Georgia.”
