Dairy is an affordable choice of nutrition that isn't easily replaced by other food sources. So what would happen to our #environment and access to #essentialnutrients if farmers and dairy cows went on vacation? 🌴🐄

The answer may surprise you.

May is #NationalOsteoporosisMonth. Consuming nutrient-rich foods and staying active are important habits for bone health.

As the top food source of calcium and vitamin D, three servings of dairy a day as part of a well-balanced diet helps build and maintain strong bones throughout life. 🥛🧀

Michigan dairy farmers are starting to plant crops that will later be harvested and become feed for their cows. 🐄

Dairy cows eat a variety of feed ingredients that are mixed into a Total Mixed Ration, or “cow casserole,” to ensure they are getting the nutrients they need to produce the high-quality milk we enjoy!

Some common casserole ingredients include:

🌽 Corn silage
🌾Haylage/Hay
🌱 Soybean meal

Learn more about alfalfa from @messykennedy! ⬇️

#RG @messykennedy When things start warming up every farmer gets antsy to get moving. It’s like seeing your neighbor mow their law, but on steroids. We had some beautiful weather on Friday and our hay is planted. We planted a mix of oats and peas with alfalfa. Alfalfa is great cow food and a perfect addition to our cow casserole because it’s high in protein. The oats and peas help protect the alfalfa while it’s just starting to grow and we can harvest more feed earlier because it grows more in cooler weather.

Grasses and alfalfa are great for the soil health too. They can help with soil compaction, are a natural water filter and once we are done with the grass it leaves organic matter (plant food) in the soil for the next crop.

Front porch cheesin to celebrate #NationalGrilledCheeseMonth! 🎉🧀

We can’t think of a comfort food more deserving of a month-long celebration. What is your go-to bread and cheese combination? Do you add 🥑 or 🍅?

#MilkMeansMore #UndeniablyDairy

#RG @stefmturner Front porch cheesin 🧀 becaussseeee it was 80, sunny-ish, annnddd dinner was done in about 8 minutes. 💁🏼‍♀️ We celebrated #nationalgrilledcheesemonth with a picnic, and our favorite “girl cheese” combo- 2 kinds of cheese (cheddar & Muenster), bread, ham, and can’t forget the ketchup for dipping.
Yes- they call it “girl cheese” and I’m never correcting them 🤣. Also, do you guys dip yours in ketchup? Or is this weird? I guess it’s something I grew up on so I thought everyone did it? Did you?

"Say Cheese!" 🧀🦷

Instead of #TongueOutTuesday it's #TeethOutTuesday! #DYK dairy foods like cheese, milk and yogurt are beneficial for dental health?

These foods provide children with protein, vitamins and minerals, especially calcium and phosphorus, that support their growth and development. Dairy may also help reduce tooth decay. Cheese increases saliva production which acts as a natural rinse for the mouth that washes away cavity-causing bacteria.
