Digital Media Assets for National Dairy Month

Celebrate Wisconsin Dairy Farmers

National Dairy Month is a time-honored tradition that’s spanned nearly 90 years. This year, perhaps more than ever, it’s an opportunity to celebrate Wisconsin’s dairy farmers. Their tireless commitment to producing real, nutritious milk and other wholesome dairy products for their communities is stronger than ever.

Here, you’ll find everything you need to craft stories that honor the people who have dedicated their lives to making Wisconsin America’s Dairyland.

Meet Our Farmers

Perhaps one of the best ways for you and your audience to learn about Wisconsin dairy is to talk to the farmers themselves. We’ll help you make meaningful connections with Wisconsin dairy farm families like these below.

Get Connected

Jenna Langer of Langer Dairy Farms in DeForest

Like 95 percent of Wisconsin dairy farms, Langer Dairy Farms is family owned and operated. Jenna works with her parents and brothers to provide exceptional comfort to their 600 cows to produce a fresh, nutrient-rich product for the community.

Randy & Mara Endres of Endres Berryridge Farms in Waunakee

Randy, a fourth-generation dairy farmer, and his daughter, Mara, are committed to leaving the land better than they inherited it more than 100 years ago. Their innovative farming practices have resulted in using 31 percent less water, 21 percent less land and reducing their carbon footprint by 21 percent.
