When the food industry first shut down because of COVID-19, the impact was felt for the farmers immediately. But instead of dumping thousands of gallons of milk, dairy farmers across Connecticut are donating their products to those in need.


And thanks to Bill Davenport and the Litchfield County 4-H volunteers, distributing the excess milk hasn’t only become easier, but it’s going to families who need it most.

So far, 4-H volunteers across the state have delivered dairy products to 96 different food pantries across 57 towns across Connecticut, helping almost 11,000 families.
