If you think the latest push to celebrate all things dairy in Wisconsin has a Kewaunee County flavor to it, you would be correct.

For the past year, Dairy Farmers of Wisconsin has highlighted the different personalities of the dairy industry through its marketing campaign. It kicked off last fall when comedian Charlie Berens shared more than a Manitowoc Minute with Luxemburg's Salentine Homestead Dairy.

It continued this spring when two of the personalities featured in the organization's "Born to Dairy" campaign had Kewaunee County ties. Television personality, Wisconsin 4-H Hall of Famer and Luxemburg farmer Millaine Stodola was highlighted as the "momager," tasked not only with farm-related duties but also with keeping her family's activities under control. In another piece, Pagel Family Businesses' Kiley Pagel was featured showcasing the technology involved in a modern dairy operation.

Pagel said it is important for her family and other farmers to explain the many different roles that help make the dairy industry what it is today.

According to the Wisconsin Department of Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection, Wisconsin is home to approximately 1.3 million dairy cows and more than 5,000 dairy farms — more than any other state. The dairy industry contributes $52.8 billion annually to Wisconsin's economy.

Counties across the state will host their own June Dairy Month activities in the coming weeks, including the Kewaunee County Breakfast on the Farm at El-Na Farms in Algoma on June 21 and the Sevastopol FFA Dairy Breakfast at Lazy J Farms in Luxemburg on July 5.
