There is so much to celebrate in May, including Mother's Day, graduations and warmer weather that brings new optimism and the end of hibernation.
In celebration of all the dairy farmer mothers out there, we are highlighting a few of our New England dairy farm moms this month.
May also marks the first time many cows venture back out on pasture after a long, cold and snowy winter.
We're also looking ahead to our biggest celebration of the year, National Dairy Month in June!
Enjoy!

Salute to Dairy Farm Moms
|
| | The Koebke Family from Dudley, MA. |
|
This month, we salute the dairy farm moms who juggle the challenges of raising a family, while also working alongside that family on the farm. It's hard work - being a mom and a farmer - but they love their jobs and their families. Read our blog, where we interviewed three of these mom/farmer superstars.

Cows Gone Wild on Pasture
|
| | A true sign of spring; cows in pasture! |
|
Just like us, cows love the transition from winter to spring. The sunny skies, the warmer weather, the lush green grass - who wouldn't be excited? It has become a tradition, and a sight to behold, on dairy farms each spring for farmers to welcome their neighbors and community as the cows are let back out to pasture after the long (& cold) winter months. Watch just how excited these cows are on our blog.
