When was the last time you had the opportunity to see a cow being milked? You can when you visit Country Dairy, a family owned business that has been processing and bottling milk in West Michigan since 1983. Take a tour of Country Dairy where over 1,000 cows are milked, milk is processed and bottled, and cheese, ice cream and butter are made. The Farm Store and adjacent Moo School are the destination for tourists, school children, and guests from all over the world.
