June Is Dairy Month

Since 1937 June has been celebrated as dairy month. This is the 73rd year of celebrating dairy month. This celebration started by grocers in 1937 and became a national holiday by 1939 is one that I grew up very aware of. Growing up in farm country I can remember the local dairy farmers Prairie Farms would sponsor many events from ice cream socials to being involved at the county fair. To teach your little ones about June Dairy Month and Dairy Farmers or to be more aware yourself you can download a free activity book from SouthEast Dairy.org
