Your Local Dairy Checkoff

We are not the dairy checkoff of old. Today’s consumer requires a new way of thinking, and our team is constantly learning, adapting and updating our tactics to reach consumers with the story – your story – of dairy.

We work to find new and innovative ways to promote dairy foods and protect dairy farmers’ reputations in the marketplace.

A whole lot goes into every single drop of milk. That’s why, at the dairy checkoff, we believe every drop of milk is essential. We’re here to make sure dairy will always matter. With research and innovation and marketing programs, we give support and tools to farmers to make dairy relevant in today’s ever-changing environment.
