Time to enjoy Breakfast on the Farm celebrating June Dairy Month

Wisconsin State Farmer
Wisconsinites of all ages will have the chance to experience modern dairy farming this June, as farms, businesses and FFA organizations and dairy promotion groups across the state celebrate June Dairy Month.

Wisconsinites of all ages are invited to experience modern dairy farming this June, as farms, businesses, FFA organizations and dairy promotion groups across the state celebrate June Dairy Month by hosting Breakfast on the Farm events.

Residents can choose from 50 events spread across the state whose mission is to focus the spotlight on Wisconsin’s role as America’s Dairyland. During this time, farm families open wide the farm gates giving visitors an up close glimpse of all things dairy: cow comfort, dairy production and sustainability. Many hosts provide tours of the farm and allow guests to view the animals that contribute to the Badger state’s dairy reputation.

Afterwards, visitors sit down for a locally sourced breakfast and perhaps a dish of ice cream to top off the morning.
