Your Story

As a dairy producer, you work hard every day to provide safe, wholesome and nutritious milk to the public. Your dedication makes you among the most credible spokespeople to tell dairy's animal care and environmental stewardship story to the public.

And, it’s a story that needs to be shared. Today, fewer and fewer Americans have a connection to food — and milk — production. With less than 2 percent of the population feeding the United States and millions throughout the world, telling your story can help your neighbors and community better understand the dairy industry and its important impact on America.

Whether you are speaking to a local civic group or public meeting, conducting a classroom farm tour, or talking to local media, please contact your local dairy promotion organization for materials and advice.
