World Milk Day
From Infogalactic: the planetary knowledge core
World Milk Day is a day established by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) of the United Nations to recognise the importance of milk as a global food.[1] It has been observed on June 1st each year since 2001.[2] The day is intended to provide an opportunity to bring attention to activities that are connected with the milk industry.[2]
History
World Milk Day was first designated by the FAO in 2001. June 1st was chosen as the date because many countries were already celebrating a milk day during that time of year.[2]
