Wisconsin Dairy Farm Tours

For those of you who have always wanted to do a farm tour but just never had time to develop a tour plan, you're in luck! The Dairy Farmers of Wisconsin developed the Wisconsin Dairy Farm Tour Booklet to be a quick reference for helping you give a successful farm tour. 

The booklet was originally developed with school groups in mind, but the information it offers can be easily adapted to fit any touring audience. We hope you find the information and ideas, as well as the other resources we've listed below, helpful in making your tour a positive experience for everyone involved.

The booklet is divided into five sections:

  1. Reintroduction to Dairy: How to Get Involved
  2. How To Maximize This Opportunity
  3. Reintroduction To Dairy: Messages 
  4. On-farm Event Planning: Best Practice Materials
  5. On-farm Event Planning: Supporting Materials   
Visit Dairy Statistics (Wisconsin and U.S.) for additional information that you could share with your tour group or download activity and color pages for kids. Tour groups should also review safety measures outlined in the Farm Tour Safety page.
