Do you love dairy?

August 5th, 2010 by Karlie Justus

Dairy producers have no shortage of fun contests available for them to enter and share their stories about life on the farm. Dairy Management, Inc. has launched a “Why I Love Dairy” video contest to see and hear sights and sounds from real dairy farms across the country.

Here are some contest details from Hoard’s Dairyman’s HD Notebook blog:

Packed into just two minutes, the videos will tell your story: why you love milk and dairy products, being a dairy farmer, life on the farm, showing/caring for cows, working with dairy farmers/being part of the dairy business, and/or producing nutrient-rich food. While cramming all that information (or what you can) into two minutes, they also encourage you to be funny, unique, quirky, and engaging. If you aren’t sure what that means, check out some of YouTube’s most watched videos, and you’ll get the picture.

To learn more, register for the myDairy program on the myDairy Toolkit website.
