The Great Georgia Give
Farmers have a long history of serving their communities. Dairy farmers in Georgia are no exception. Their local Georgia milk and dairy foods have been a staple in our refrigerators for generations. During this uncertain time, Georgia dairy farmers are here once again to serve and support our community by donating milk to those in need – people on the frontlines like first responders, healthcare workers, police officers and members of the fire department.
Along with amazing partners like Kroger, Dairy Farmers of America (DFA) and the Georgia Department of Agriculture, we are helping Georgians through this pandemic one community at a time.
Despite times of social distancing, our Georgia dairy farmers are reaching out and supporting those who are supporting us. We are all in this together.
