Event Description

The Dairy Symposium is a "not for profit event" developed “for producers, by producers" through Milk Committees covering a 14 county area of South Western Ontario.  Last year we saw a record attendance of over 800 people (including the exhibitors).  We will continue to provide a forum for discussion of industry issues with our very popular audience response system, and the "Food from our Farms" initiative will once again feature new and novel dairy products.  For updates on the program, check out our website at www.dairysymposium.com
