Calling all dairy producers in Minnesota! Your help is needed in connecting with consumers online. Midwest Dairy Association is seeking your input and photos for their new website call Explore Dairy. What a great opportunity for you to showcase your hard-work!
Minnesota consumers will soon be able get details about summer dairy activities with just a click of the mouse. Midwest Dairy Association is preparing to launch a new Web site designed to be a one-stop hub for consumers looking for information on Minnesota’s dairy industry – and it’s looking for contributions from producers.
ExploreDairy.com will help spread the word about summertime dairy-related activities, from June Dairy Month through the State Fair. It will also showcase the passion dairy farmers and their families have for producing a wholesome, nutritious product while caring for their animals and the land they call home. The site, which is scheduled to launch in late May, will include a calendar of events and articles, photos and videos featuring everything from Princess Kay to the People Behind the Product of Minnesota.
Midwest Dairy Association is asking dairy farmers to be a part of the Dairy Diary, highlighting their families and what they’ve been doing on their farms throughout the summer. Dairy producers are invited to submit journal entries and photos to help communicate the values, dedication and responsibilities the industry readily shoulders to provide consumers with great tasting dairy products.
Short journal entries of about 75-100 words will be submitted to Midwest Dairy Association. The entries are expected to describe current activities on the farm, and should include at least two pictures that showcase family members or employees involved in those tasks. Entries can be submitted from May 26 through Sept. 1 to info@midwestdairy.com.
