Brown County Health & Education Impact Study
Examining the impact of housing services on health and education outcomes in Brown County

Today !!! 🐮🥛🧀Time NotesThis is a "While Supplies Last" Event. This goes FAST! Please be kind to the volunteers in case they run out early.Event Details:The Dairy Distribution is back again this year! If you remember from years past, this is a hugely popular event! Distribution begins sharp at 4pm. You will want to get in line much earlier than that, though. This is a drive-through event hosted by several local area businesses and FFAs. Each vehicle is allowed one cooler bag filled with a variety of dairy goodies.History and FAQHere is a short history of how and when the event started and a few things to expect when you go:Back in 2020, Covid was hurting so many. Families, Farmers, Dairy Producers, etc that the organizers of this event got together and put together little cooler bags filled with a variety of dairy products all made here in Wisconsin.So, now once a year, they release the list of distribution sites so families can pick up their cooler bag of dairy products.It’s a drive-through event, just like it was during Covid and it’s only one cooler bag per vehicle. The entire event is run entirely by volunteers. It’s usually the area FFA that does it, but there are a few businesses on the list too.There are 2 new sites this year. Each year they add more distribution sites as well.It’s very well attended. The lines can get long. And a lot of sites will run out of coolers before they run out of cars in line. This is a first come, first serve event and they have no idea how many people are coming.Every site starts handing out at exactly 4pm and won’t start early.If there is someone who needs to pick up more than one cooler bag, there are 2 options. They can have a passenger get out and walk or they can try to drive around again. That way it’s fair to everyone.For maps of each location, check out this page ruralnewfamilies.com/event/neighborhood-dairy-distribution-2026/... See MoreSee Less
