National Dairy Month kicked off Tuesday with World Milk Day.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Dairy Farmer Amy Bunse of Savannah says this month provides an opportunity for her to thank everyone in the industry.&nbsp;&nbsp;

“It takes a community to run a dairy farm,” Bunse tells St. Joseph Post. “There’re&nbsp;so many people that help make a dairy farm well run.”&nbsp;

Bunse says a day in a life of a dairy farmer varies day to day with a few things staying the same.&nbsp;&nbsp;

“Every day we have the morning milking, the evening milking, and then getting everybody fed,” says Bunse.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Bunse says her brother farms and produces the feed&nbsp;for their animals.&nbsp;

“Their meal is produced on farm and then we just purchase whatever we need to complete their meal,” says Bunse.&nbsp;&nbsp;

Bunse says&nbsp;this month is an opportunity to share why dairy is important to her.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;

“My favorite part are the baby calves. I just love getting a calf on her feet for the first time, helping her figure out how to drink her bottle,” says Bunse. “That’s just something I love to do.”&nbsp;

Bunse encourages everyone to participate in recognizing June Diary Month. She says if you are interested in visiting a dairy farm, contact Midwest Dairy to get connected to your local farms.&nbsp;&nbsp;
