June is National Dairy Month.

To help celebrate, Yoke’s Fresh Market at Argonne Village in Spokane Valley is offering shoppers the chance to meet Deer Park dairy farmer Stephanie Littrel.

Littrel will explain where dairy products come during the meet-and-greet, which takes place from 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. Friday at store, 9329 E. Montgomery Ave.

Littrel is a third-generation dairy farmer who took over the 600-acre family dairy farm from her grandfather. He started dairy farming in 1953.

Today, Littrel – along with her husband Scot and son Derek –  mange the care, feeding and milking of some 200 Holstein and Brown Swiss dairy cows.

Her Yoke’s visit is part of Meet Your Local Dairy, a project of the Dairy Farmers of Washington. 

Inland Northwest Dairy Ambassador Ashley Rochlitzer is also slated to attend the event and hand out free containers of chocolate milk.
