When a Pennsylvania dairy farm was instructed by their main distributor to dump the excess milk they would usually collect amid the CCP virus outbreak, the farmers rallied to come up with a less wasteful solution. The result of their efforts was a triumph of community spirit.
Whoa Nellie Dairy in Acme, Pennsylvania, posted their dilemma on Facebook on April 11, 2020. “As many of you know, all the excess milk we do not bottle is shipped to Schneider’s in Pittsburgh, PA,” the family-run dairy wrote. “They have just contacted us and told us they will not be picking up our milk on Wednesday or Friday.”
