It only takes about 48 hours for milk to travel from the farm to you. Use the additional resources and activities below to help your students understand where their milk comes from and the role dairy farm families play in producing a wholesome, nutritious product that goes from the farm to glass in as little as two days.
Grab a cold glass of milk and sit down for a dairy farming virtual chat featuring New England Patriots Linebacker Chase Winovich and Massachusetts dairy farmer Nicole Fletcher from Fletcher Farm. Learn firsthand how dairy farmers care for their cows, protect the environment, and produce the safe and delicious milk you enjoy every day. Plus, hear Chase talk about his experience visiting a New England dairy farm.
