Indiana dairy farmer featured on Disney’s Citizen Kids

Milk Life and Disney have partnered to produce a 21 episode web series to celebrate the potential in all kids and the extraordinary things they accomplish.  The latest episode features 10 year-old dairy farmer Jenna Kelsay of Whiteland, Ind.  For the last two years, Jenna has been working to educate other kids about the source of their food and the importance of dairy to a healthy diet. “I tell them about the history of our farm,” she says. “I tell them about how we milk our cows and how many times they milk.”

Jenna is the seventh generation of Kelsay’s to be involved in the family dairy business.  Kelsay Farms welcomes around 20,000 visitors annually to learn about life on the farm.  Jenna tells Brownfield there’s a reason why she’s active in her family’s operation.  “People need to know where there milk comes from,” she says.  “And giving tours is a good way to do that.”

Jenna’s story and the stories of other Citizen Kids is focused on inspiring kids to reach their fullest potential.
