Celebrate National Dairy Month 2025 With The Dairy Alliance
June is National Dairy Month, a time to recognize and appreciate the hardworking dairy farmers and the delicious, nutritious products they provide every day. Communities are coming together to celebrate with fun, family-friendly events, tastings, and educational opportunities. There are events across the Southeast this month to celebrate all things dairy.
The Dairy Alliance is proud to work on behalf of the 1,065 dairy farm families across our 8 state region. Collectively, these farms produced 667 million gallons of milk in 2024 with the average cow producing roughly 7.6 gallons of milk per day. In celebration of National Dairy Month, join our team in thanking all the hard-working farmers that continue to put food on our tables.
