012 | Straight Talk on Dairy Sustainability with Tara Vander Dussen

Tara Vander Dussen is one of dairy’s strongest voices for environmental sustainability, but in today’s episode, we go bigger and broader to talk about the financial and social side, as well as it means to her as an entrepreneur, mother to two young girls and partner with her husband Daniel in his family’s dairy farm.

What you’ll learn:

  • Why we should be watching what’s happening to dairy farmers in The Netherlands

  • Tara’s definition of sustainability

  • The one key message every dairy farmer should memorize on dairy sustainability

  • How Tara and Daniel are building a sustainable dairy farming business structure

  • Tara’s new role on the dairy checkoff board

  • Real talk about the human side of sustainability as a wife, mom and business owner
