Beloved 2023 Milk Calendar now available

Each year, Canadian dairy farmers look forward to sharing the iconic Milk Calendar tradition in homes across the country. The Milk Calendar is filled with 13 delicious, dairy-inspired recipes and local ingredients. Whether it’s a simple, wholesome meal for a busy weekday or a special occasion, there’s something for everyone who appreciates the versatility of local dairy.

This year, DFO is focused on driving digital sign-ups by offering consumers exclusive access to eight bonus recipes. In addition, Ontario consumers who sign up for the digital version are automatically entered into a contest for a chance to win one of three prizes for free milk for a year. Working with our retail partners (Longo's, LCBO and Metro), DFO will drive awareness of the Milk Calendar across digital newsletters and social media platforms throughout October and November.
