About

Dairy Discovery is committed to educating the West Michigan community about the integrity of production practices and benefits of technology use in the dairy industry. The story of dairy is told through exposure to daily life on a large and modern farm-engaging the tourist in interactive and enjoyable experiences at Swisslane Farms. As generations grow and are disconnected from farms, the need for consumers to understand how their food is produced is even more important.
