Ear tags help farmers identify each animal, usually displaying a number on them that is unique to that calf or cow. They also may include the date the animal was born and other information depending on the farm.

We are excited to announce our fifth #HomeFridgeAdvantage Winner – Congratulations to Fran from Grosse Pointe Shores!

Fran and his family are lovers of everything dairy but have had limited refrigeration to safely store it in. The door of his 40-year-old appliance fell off and has leaked cold air since reattaching. The family has also gone without a freezer for quite some time, limiting what they are able to purchase at the grocery store.

As an essential worker and fantastic dad to four kids (pictured), Fran is more than deserving of a new refrigerator stocked with #UndeniablyDairy and groceries! Courtesy of Michigan's dairy farmers, @krogerco and @detroitlionsnfl.

Fran completed his “Forward Pass,” granting Ferry Elementary School $2000 to purchase equipment that will allow them to provide more nutrient-rich milk to students.

Most milk sold in the U.S. contains vitamin D. Because few foods naturally contain vitamin D, it can be added in specified amounts to dairy foods to help people meet dietary recommendations.

Vitamin D is important, along with calcium, for keeping bones healthy. Eating vitamin D-fortified foods like milk, orange juice and breakfast cereals (check the Nutrition Facts label), as well as natural sources like fatty fish, can help people achieve the recommended amount of vitamin D needed for good health. 🥛🦴

Now this one hits the spot! 🐄

Some dairy barns are equipped with self-serve cow brushes. These large, rotating brushes start spinning on contact, giving cows a good scratch!

The majority of cows on Michigan dairy farms are milked in buildings called "milking parlors" two or three times a day. 🐄

When they enter the building, their udder and teats are cleaned to keep them healthy and ensure milk quality.

Milkers are then attached that gently suction the teats and milk is released. Milk then flows through sanitized pipes where it is chilled and stored in a refrigerated tank.

After the cow is finished milking, her teats are covered with another sanitizer to protect and condition them.

The entire process only takes 5-7 minutes! The cow then returns back to her pen to eat and sleep.

Watch the process by following the 🔗 in our bio.
