Dairymom's Thankful Thursday

Governor Asa Hutchinson declared June Dairy Month in Arkansas.

It's the perfect kick-off to a month that celebrates the nutritious goodness of milk and a variety of dairy products that consumers across our state and the nation enjoy everyday.

Milk is our Arkansas state drink!

I was honored to take part in this ceremony with 

Arkansas Farm Bureau Dairy Ambassador Julie Griffin,

other dairy  farmers and industry leaders.

                                         
                                       I'm thankful for a governor who supports dairy farmers,
                                                                                 and

                                              showed his love for milk by raising his glass
                                           to celebrate June Dairy Month and World Milk Day!
                                                                 

Raise Your Glass for World Milk Day

We're  kicking off June Dairy Month celebrating World Milk Day (June 1)

 down on the dairy farm 

by raising a glass of our favorite ...MILK!

World Milk Day was established  in 2001 by the Food and 

Agriculture Organization  of the United Nations to recognize

 the importance  of milk as a global food.

Behind every nutritious drop, is a dedicated dairy farm family.

We invite you to celebrate with us today  by raising a glass (or two) and

 if you share your toast on a social media channel using hashtags 

#WorldMilkDay or #RaiseAGlass, 

our Dairy Farmers of America Cooperative will donate $1 

to the Great American Milk Drive, up to $10,000. 

Just think how many more of our friends could enjoy a glass of nutritious milk 

by today's #World Milk Day celebration!

                                                     
                                                        I just love milk...how about you?
