Spring is Almost Here!

Hi, my name is Julia Fouts, and I am a Tompkins County Dairy Princess Ambassador. Dairy farmers all around are beginning to pull out their planters and tractors to get ready for spring planting. Looking in to new methods, fertilizers, and technology are just some of the ways farmers are improving their care of the land and protection of the environment. Dairy farmers innovate every year to ensure healthy crops such as corn, soybeans, and oats. Healthy crops produce a nutritious diet and healthy dairy cows. Dairy farmers commit to keeping their cows healthy and strong for the production of high quality milk. The innovation and improvement every spring leads to high quality milk and dairy products for consumers to enjoy. Happy Spring!
