Today is National Hug Day!
Although we promote hugging as much as possible, please keep in mind that it's also a season of sharing germs. We would like to suggest moving National Hug Day to the summer. 😷 Does anyone else feel the same? ❣

Happy National Cheese Lovers Day!
Not only does cheese make everything better, it’s also packed with protein, calcium, and essential nutrients that support strong bones and muscles. Wisconsin didn’t earn the title “America’s Dairyland” by accident. From cheddar to curds, we take our cheese very seriously.
Go ahead… celebrate responsibly (or don’t).
