Dairy's Foundation is a mission sponsor of Professional Dairy Producers because we believe that education is the key to healthy and vibrant dairy communities. PDP fulfills that promise by providing programs that are consistent with the Foundation's strategic vision of a professional, proactive and prepared dairy community. PDP is the perfect platform for the Foundation to focus support in these key areas: raising up the next generation of the dairy community and maintaining public trust in dairy’s people and products.   – Brian Forrest, Board Chair and dairy owner, Maple Ridge Dairy

The Professional Dairy Producers is a rare, one-of-a-kind organization: farmer led, forward-thinking leaders who drive change through education for the betterment of dairy farmers, the food system and consumers. From ensuring food safety to your passion for cow care and respect for natural resources, PDP helps dairy farmers not only stay in step with but also build trusted relationships with customers and consumers. As dairy’s professional development organization, PDP is about helping enable continuous improvement at the farm-level. It’s not hard to want to support and get behind something like that, especially when our own roots are in dairy. Thank you for the opportunity to sponsor and serve you!     – Linda Wenck, Principal Director, Corporate Affairs & Social Responsibility
