Dairy Industry in Oregon

The Oregon dairy industry has been producing award-winning cheeses, milk, butter, premium ice cream, sour cream and yogurt for over 150 years. Three hundred fifty farm families work together to produce our nation’s highest quality milk, which is made into a variety of tasty, healthy, dairy products for you to enjoy.

These prize-winning products are promoted by the Oregon Dairy Products Commission through generic advertising on radio, television and in print; in-store marketing and promotional activities; and public relations with the media and the consumer.
