Envision Greater FDL Cancels June Dairy Month Events

Envision Greater Fond du Lac announced Monday they are
cancelling their scheduled June dairy month events due to the current state of
the COVID-19 pandemic. Among the events being cancelled include the June Dairy
Day event scheduled for June 6th and the Breakfast on the Farm which
had been scheduled for June 28th.


“This was not an easy decision as both these events are
well-liked by those in our communities, but public safety must be our first
concern,” Amy Ries, Director of Agricultural Programs said in a statement. “We
encourage people to celebrate the dairy industry (and our farmers!) at home by
purchasing milk, cheese, ice cream and other dairy products,” she added. 


Envision says they will be offering alternative
opportunities to celebrate June Dairy Month, and encourage people to watch
their website and social media accounts for announcements on those
opportunities.
