Oconto Falls Library Partners with FFA in Dairy Product Giveaway

6/29/2020

0 Comments

 
​The Oconto Falls Library partnered with the Oconto Falls FFA in a dairy product giveaway. The giveaway started with local businesses raising money to purchase surplus dairy products from local cheese and milk factories. On June 24, 2020, starting at 4:00 p.m., the library had cars lined up to drive through the parking lot and stopping to receive a free bag of assorted dairy products. 

FFA and 4-H groups distributed 3,500 bags in 23 communities in Northeastern Wisconsin. The 200 bags allocated to the Oconto Falls FFA and Alumni were distributed in about 45 minutes.

Joan Denis, the Director of the Oconto Falls Library, said "The goal of the project was to support our local dairy industry.
We hope those receiving the bags of dairy products enjoy and continue to support our Wisconsin Farmers."

The Neighborhood Dairy Distribution project was initiated by Maple Valley Mutual Insurance company, which was its major sponsor. Products were provided by local dairy farmers, dairy producers, FFA, 4-H, and neighborhood volunteers. Additional support was provided by St. Anne's Church, Kugel's Cheese Mart, Rank's Northern Distributing LLC, Kugels Cheese, Graf Creamery, Saputo Cheese, Simon's Specialty Cheese, Springside Cheese and BelGioioso Cheese.
