Did you know Discover Dairy’s growing Adopt a Cow program now impacts more than 2 million students each school year? Have you heard about American Dairy Association North East’s programs for breakfast, yogurt and cheese, Strive for 35 Cold Milk Program, and Farm-to-School initiatives? The farm-to-school connections across the dairy industry have a lot of momentum right now – and dairy processors are an important part of these connections. During this month’s webinar, Robin Duff and Brittany Snyder will share ways both organizations are collaborating with school food-service directors to grow milk and dairy use in school meals. Dairy processors will learn creative ideas for how you can connect with students in your community this school year, tell your story, and help kids learn about the nutritional benefits of dairy products.
