It’s National Milk Day!!

We are so grateful for all the Virginia youth who participate in our 4-H and FFA Youth Dairy Educational Events and Competitions, and would not be able to offer any of these programs without the support of Dairy Producers, Milk Cooperatives, and Stakeholders throughout Virginia and beyond! THANK YOU!!

Raise a glass to Virginia dairy! Our dairy farms contribute nearly $354 million annually to the commonwealth's economy. Behind every glass of milk is a farming family working around the clock. 🥛

POSTPONED - To Be Rescheduled!!

Out of an abundance of caution we have decided to postpone Hokie Dairy Day. Road conditions in outlying areas are not the best and temperatures are expected to remain at or below freezing overnight. Your safety is very important to us. We will announce a new date as soon as possible and hope that you will be able to join us then. Thanks for your support of Hokie Dairy Day.
