What's New

St. Louis District Dairy Council offers a variety of programs, both in and out of the classroom, to help schools educate students on the importance of dairy foods as part of a healthy diet. These programs offer everything from grants to encourage healthy eating in schools to games and activities that teach lessons about dairy. And that's only the beginning.

Fuel for the Future

Eat foods in various forms including fresh, frozen, canned, and dried. Milk, cheese, and yogurt pair well with all food groups. Cheese with whole grain crackers, yogurt with fresh fruit, and milk with a meal are great options. 

Stay on Track with Dairy Snacks

A dairy-packed snack adds nutrients and energy to head off a mid-morning or after-lunch slump. Snacks have been linked to improved concentration and comprehension in adults and students alike.

Plants + Dairy = The Perfect New Year’s Resolution

Decades of research show plant and dairy foods can help reduce the risk for various diseases and help Americans get more of the nutrients they are lacking.

Cheers to Charcuterie!

Prepare a charcuterie board with a collection of foods from different categories. This ensures a wide variety of textures, flavors, and colors to choose from and makes it appealing to the eye as well. 

‘Tis the Season for Dairy Drinks

All dairy milk, whether served warm or cold, contains 13 essential nutrients the body needs. These nutrients include calcium, vitamin D and potassium, which are nutrients of concern within American diets. The dairy case has something for everyone. 

Fall in Love with Family Meals

Scheduling sit down meals, grocery shopping together, and preparing meals with local fresh ingredients can boost overall health and foster family communication and engagement.
