Does the Dairy Bar really make all of its dairy products from UConn milk?
Yes! Our average milk pick up is 200 gallons. We proudly use the Kellogg Dairy Center milk to manufacture all of our ice cream, cheese, and yogurt. On any given day, the KDC milks an average of 90-100 dairy cows, three times a day per cow! The Dairy Bar uses a fraction of the milk that the UConn cows produce, and the rest is picked up by a milk tanker truck from a farmer owned cooperative and taken to a dairy plant in West Springfield, MA.
