Get ready for a virtual mud bath! To celebrate National Farmers Day in the United States, Organic Valley is hosting its second annual livestream event, offering a coast-to-coast glimpse into the world of small organic family farms, that is why we thought we would share with Farm Farm Canada readers.
Mark your calendars for Friday, Oct 11th, from 7 am to 5 pm CST. The YouTube livestream will feature nearly a dozen farmers from Washington to Vermont, showcasing the daily routines and beauty of organic dairy farming.
Inspired by the success of last year's event, Organic Valley is taking viewers on a real-time journey. Imagine curious cows, breathtaking pastures, and the chance to ask real farmers your burning questions.
This interactive experience will bring the landscape and biodiversity of Organic Valley farms in six states (New York, Ohio, Pennsylvania, Vermont, Washington, and Wisconsin) to life.
Calling all classrooms and families! Sign up in advance at https://www.organicvalley.coop/ to access educational materials and interactive activities to enhance the livestream experience.
Organic Valley encourages everyone to virtually explore these family farms and learn how they protect where our food comes from.
These farms are more than just dairy producers. They also play a vital role in environmental sustainability.
Organic Valley farmers manage over half a million acres of organic land, creating wildlife habitats, minimizing water pollution, and combating climate change.
The National Farmers Day livestream, held a day before the official holiday (Oct 12th), celebrates the dedication of these farmers who care for animals, people, and the planet. Interviews with participating farmers are available upon request.
