Dr. Amanda Stone, an associate professor at MSU, held the first dairy farm tour for Mississippi students since the COVID-19 pandemic. Over 700 students, teachers and parents attended the event. Students were able to tour the dairy barns and grounds, milk a cow, pet calves and learn about the digestive tract of a cow. The Dairy Alliance's Donna Speed was present to teach how to make smoothies with real milk, offering samples and discussing the importance of consuming dairy each day.
