Jones Sausage at Wisconsin Dairy Breakfasts in June
National Dairy Month is a big deal at Jones Dairy Farm, but not for the reason you might think.
Despite our name, Jones makes no dairy products at all. The company was home to a working dairy farm until the mid-1980s but ceased operations to concentrate on the meat products you’ve come to love. This includes all-natural sausage, dry-aged bacon, naturally smoked ham, Canadian bacon, braunschweiger, and now meatballs.
However, just because Jones is not in the dairy business anymore doesn’t mean the company can’t celebrate June Dairy Month. In fact, Jones products are the perfect complement to any farm-style breakfast which is why the company has become an official sponsor of several upcoming dairy breakfasts around the state of Wisconsin.
What is a dairy breakfast in Wisconsin? There is a 50-year tradition of Dairy Month farm events during June. One of the more popular events is a “Breakfast on the Farm.” In communities around the state, the public is invited to visit a working dairy farm for a delicious breakfast, farm tour and dairy fun for the whole family. A different farm family has the privilege of hosting the breakfast each year so they can share their own story. Want to learn more about what to expect, visit here.
When are the dairy breakfasts in Wisconsin? Dairy breakfasts are held on weekends throughout the month of June to coincide with National Dairy Month. Please join Jones Dairy Farm at the following local dairy farms for a hearty and delicious Farm Breakfast featuring fresh Wisconsin-made dairy products and Jones Sausage. Each farm and Farm Breakfast is unique, so check out more than one. As you can see, the events are fun and affordable for the entire family, so we hope to see you on the farm!
