National Dairy Month started as National Milk Month in 1937 as a way to promote drinking milk. It was initially created to stabilize dairy demand when production was at a surplus. But it’s now developed into an annual tradition that celebrates the contributions the dairy industry has made to the world. After the National Dairy Council stepped in to promote the cause, the name soon changed to “Dairy Month.”
