Welcome Southwest Dairy Farmers!
They'll be stopping by with their Mobile Dairy Classroom, a traveling milking parlor, featuring a live cow and an oral presentation.
Their trained instructors will demonstrate how to milk a cow, describe how milk goes from the farm to the consumer, and then answer questions from the audience. This is an innovative program that brings the dairy experience directly to children.
