Our Mission

We leverage the strengths of each organization and align resources to serve our members efficiently and to advocate for them effectively while at the same time maintaining our own individual goals and objectives.

vom-why (2)

Our Why

We love the dairy community, and we want to see our farm families and allied businesses succeed. That’s challenging without sensible, scientifically sound and sustainable policies and regulations at the local, state and federal levels.

Who We Serve

We collectively serve the members of the individual organizations that make up the Voice of Milk, including dairy farmers, agri-businesses, dairy product processors and other supporters.

We are the Voice of Milk.

Here's how we're different: The Voice of Milk is a multi-state collaboration advocating solely on behalf of dairy farmers, without additional pressure from conflicting interests, we are small but mighty, with the ability to pivot quickly without rigid guidelines, and we represent all sizes and management styles of dairy farms.
