As the voice of milk, Edge advocates for policies that help dairy farmers succeed.
Not only do the issues we work on affect our member farmers – they affect all dairy farmers and oftentimes also allied businesses, such as dairy processors, suppliers and service providers.
Now, those dairy farmers and corporate businesses who aren’t members have an opportunity to support the work Edge does and take advantage of exclusive benefits through the Edge Supporter Program.
Core member services supporters share:
Direct link to federal representation on policy issues that affect your business, through our in-house government affairs staff and Washington, D.C., lobbying team, Michael Torrey Associates.
Opportunities to participate on committees, focus groups and trips to D.C. to advocate on behalf of the dairy community.
Market information and dairy community news through monthly newsletters, weekly e-newsletter and email alerts on critical policy updates.
