Food should not be an impossible choice. The dairy community is committed to ensuring nutrient-rich foods such as milk, cheese and yogurt are accessible to all.

Take action with us this #HungerActionMonth by…

❤️ Volunteering your time at a food pantry in your community

or

🥛 Donating a gallon of milk to a food bank at milklife.com/give/pouritforward

#RG @messykennedy September is #HungerActionMonth and this is something I feel passionately about. My milk cooperative and cooperatives across the state donate thousands of gallons of milk to Michigan food pantries in partnership with different grocery stores and milk processors. Milk Means More provides the infrastructure for providing dairy at food pantries through grants. Locally, I donate dairy and other shelf stable foods to any local daycare or classroom that might need snacks for the families who are food insecure.

Food is such an important part of my life and it’s life sustaining. My goal is to make it so no one has to wonder where their next meal is going to come from.

Dairy farmers are always looking for opportunities to reuse and recycle resources on the farm to reduce their environmental footprint.

For the Reid family, progress looked like harnessing solar power by installing 96 solar panels on their freestall barn. 💡☀️ On a sunny day, they produce more than enough power for the farm and the panels reduce electricity costs by about 30%!

"Whether it’s traveling across the country or in our own backyards, farmers like to help," said Michigan dairy farmer Diane Loew. "We know first-hand the blessings that come with helping each other." 🤍🥛

#DYK milk is one of the most requested food items but rarely donated due to its perishability?

Another popular breed of dairy cattle are Jerseys! They produce milk with higher percentages of protein and butterfat, perfect for making cheese and ice cream. 🍦🧀

The fawn colored cows are known for being efficient, yielding a lot of milk for their smaller size.

Dairy farmers across the state have begun to harvest corn as feed for their cows! 🐄🌽

The entire plant including the stalk, cob, kernels and leaves are chopped up then transported back to the farm where the material is stored in silos and preserved through fermentation.

Corn is high in energy 🔋 and a key component in the total mixed ration, or casserole, cows eat each day.
