While the month of December brings a blanket of snow to our state, Michigan dairy farmers are still going green! 🌎♻️

Although fossil fuels and waste disposal comprise major sources of methane emissions, the dairy community is a part of this reduction effort. Recovering the methane from cow manure 💩, also known as biogas, creates a source of renewable energy for electricity, heating or clean, carbon-negative transportation fuel. 🚗

Ensuring your meeting your daily requirement for calcium and vitamin D is especially important for those expecting. 🤰🥛 Whether dairy foods are a craving or not, learn 4 tips for getting enough essential nutrients during pregnancy by clicking on the 🔗 in our bio.

#RG @stefmturner After staying up half the night with a sick toddler, I’m taking a moment tonight just to sit back, watch a Christmas romcom and hide any evidence that I had hot chocolate without my kids. ❄️
Random fun fact: during this pregnancy I have wanted milk like never before🥛- I could basically chug it by the glass. Turns out, after doing some research, I don’t think I was getting enough calcium even prior to pregnancy, leaving me craving it. The past few weeks I’ve been working to incorporate more dairy into my diet, whether it’s in the form of a yogurt smoothie, or a hot chocolate night cap 🫶🏻 Did you have any cravings like this during pregnancy? The only other time I’ve had something similar is when I was pregnant with Violet and craved orange juice! 🍊
