From Area Development Magazine:
“We take great pride in sourcing only fresh, high-quality milk from our dairy cattle to produce bottled milk and other dairy products. […] This expansion project will help us meet growing consumer demand by increasing operational efficiencies, increasing production capacity, and adding a production line of fresh churned butter.” […]
“I am pleased that the Governor’s Agriculture and Forestry Industries Development Fund’s facility grant allows us to partner with Wythe County to support the expansion of Duchess Dairy. […] This expansion increases dairy processing opportunities in the state, especially dairies in Southwest Virginia, and supports the growth of Virginia’s dairy industry.”
