June is Dairy Month! - Come celebrate Dairy Month locally by joining us at Dairy Day on June 27 at Burgy Farmers Market! June Dairy Month is a national tradition that originated in 1937. It is a time to celebrate and enjoy dairy products during the month of June when milk production typically is at its peak. In June and indeed all year long we want to raise our milk glasses and toast Massachusetts dairy farmers. Dairy farmers and their cows work hard every day to produce roughly 246 million pounds of local, wholesome milk which is used to make delicious products like cheese, yogurt, ice-cream, and butter. Dairy farming is essential to the vitality and diversity of Massachusetts agriculture. Dairy farms maintain approximately 113,600 acres of open space and land preservation and dairy farming circulates approximately $40 million to a local economy.
