Breakfast on the Farm
Teaching our kids where their food is from is very important, that's why each year the Michigan Dairy Council puts on Breakfast on the Farm. The events go throughout the summer, at different Michigan dairy farms throughout the state. You can attend, enjoy a free breakfast and learn all about dairy production in our home state! Even as an adult, you'll be surprised at some of the facts about milk, and even the behind the scene processes that go into getting it to the store. 

You do need tickets to attend, so check out the locations below and get yours! It's a great educational opportunity, fun for the family and free!
