Beyond the concrete garden…

Lies a sprawling-unending stretch of irreplaceable farmland home to one of New York’s most impactful industries, the dairy industry. Home to over 3,500 farms that support 183,000 dairy related jobs across the state. 

New York is one of the top five largest dairy industries in the country, naming dairy the largest sector of New York's entire agricultural industry. That is no small feat.

Think about it. New York boasts thousands of dairy farms that produce over 15 billion pounds of milk each year. Yes, we said 15 BILLION, with a 'b.'

New York State ranks first in the United States in the production of cottage cheese, yogurt, and sour cream.

Thousands of dairy farms means more jobs—jobs for individuals, families, communities, businesses—an industry that proudly contributes directly to the New York economy. 

That’s NEW YORK DAIRY.
