I love the anticipation of a new season. There’s something so exciting about a new school year, the return of pumpkin spice, and watching the leaves turn from green to vibrant reds, yellows, and oranges. This fall certainly looks different than previous years, but that’s even more reason to cherish moments with family and make new traditions.
Fall is a great time to celebrate local farmers and the delicious foods they produce. October 12th is National Farmers Day, and my family will be enjoying delicious dairy and thanking the dairy farm families who work hard every day to produce a nutritious product.
Celebrate fall and local dairy foods with these family-friendly activities and recipes.
