Wisconsin counties run short of free cheese and butter
Wisconsin counties faced shortages in the December three day free cheese and butter distribution. Coordinators underestimated demand leading to quick depletion of allocations including Wood County which exhausted its 18 000 pounds of cheese and 10 500 pounds of butter on day one. The program supported by U S Department of Agriculture and set for March aims to reduce surplus dairy stocks nationwide.
