Hoard’s Dairyman Blog – June Dairy Month

This is my latest post for the Hoard’s Dairyman Blog – HD Notebook

As we say goodbye to May and hello to June, it signals the time to celebrate June Dairy Month. Personally, I think it is pretty awesome that for a whole month every year we have the opportunity to acknowledge and honor the dairy industry. From cow to gallon, there are so many reasons to celebrate.

It gives us a great reason to share and connect with consumers about dairy. We are taking so many steps to ensure a healthy, nutritious, and delicious product. From cow care to nutrition to milking procedures, the list goes on and on with everything we do daily for that end result. And behind all those steps, are the literal steps that we put in to make it all happen.

So I’m excited to announce the idea of #MilkSteps in celebration of June Dairy Month. I know many of us wear a Fitbit or carry a phone in our pockets that has a daily step counter on it. I’m encouraging you to join me and fellow dairy advocates in sharing our steps throughout the month of June. Use screenshots, post felfies (farmer selfies), and incorporate messages about the actual steps involved in producing quality milk…..{Read the rest of Stepping up to June Dairy Month here}
