Have a Dairy Good Time in Wisconsin During June

Ways to Enjoy National Dairy Month in America's Dairyland

MADISON, Wis., May 18, 2022 /PRNewswire/ -- Celebrate National Dairy Month this June with Dairy Farmers of Wisconsin (DFW) and explore all the ways dedicated dairy farm families make Wisconsin America's Dairyland.

Quality dairy products start with the best milk in the world, produced by Wisconsin's devoted dairy farmers. As one of the nation's top producers of dairy and supplier of more than half the country's specialty cheese, Wisconsin does dairy better than anyone. Dairy products are a natural source of immune-boosting nutrients, like vitamin A, vitamin D and protein that our bodies need, and dairy is the backbone to our state's economy providing $45.6 Billion in economic activity – Dairy is Good for You and for Wisconsin.

National Dairy Month pays tribute to the steadfast Wisconsin dairy farmers who contribute to their local communities, care for the land and animals, and produce delicious and nutritious dairy products. Dairy farming is a family affair in Wisconsin. In fact, over 95% of all dairy farms are family owned.

"Farming is a labor of love – a love of the land, cows, family and feeding the world," said Suzanne Fanning, Senior Vice President of Dairy Farmers of Wisconsin and Chief Marketing Officer for Wisconsin Cheese. "Wisconsin dairy farms often consist of multiple generations dedicated to producing high-quality milk, providing care for animals and improving the land for future generations."

Here are five easy ways to make this June a 'legen-DAIRY' start to summer fun:

The versatility and nutritional value of dairy products make it easy to participate in this month-long celebration. Dairy is a pure, farm-to-table food with an all-natural ingredient profile that makes smoothies creamier, desserts richer and summer picnics tastier.
