Mississippi Food Network has received a generous donation of at least 400 gallons of lactose-free milk from Prairie Farms, as part of the National Dairy Month celebration in June. The organization is grateful for this donation, as many of their neighbors in need do not have access to fresh milk and typically receive shelf-stable milk instead. Stacey Jordan, the Director of Development at Mississippi Food Network, highlighted the nutritional value of the lactose-free milk and emphasized its importance for all families.
Prairie Farms is committed to increasing the accessibility of fresh quality milk to communities in need and recently expanded its dairy portfolio to include lactose-free products. The company’s donation to Mississippi Food Network is just one part of their mission to support organizations across the U.S. in providing essential nutrition to those facing food insecurity.
Mississippi Food Network expressed their gratitude for the donation and emphasized their openness to receiving more support in the future. The refrigerated storage of the milk at their facility ensures that it remains fresh and ready for distribution to families in need. This partnership between Prairie Farms and Mississippi Food Network showcases the importance of companies and organizations coming together to address food insecurity and provide essential resources to those who need it most.
