Dear Southern States Dairy Patron,
We are pleased to present you with this 2009 calendar, marking the fifth year of our calendar program. Once again, there was an overwhelming response from dairy farm families all across the membership area. We hope that you will enjoy the photographs as much as we did.
Since our beginning in 1923, Southern States has been proud to play an integral role in the lives of the farmers, who are our member-owners. We recognize the daily challenges that you face and appreciate the business that you bring to your local Southern States store. Your dedication to the production of our food and fiber and to Southern States has made the Cooperative one of the most successful farm cooperatives in the country.
We especially appreciate the hard work and dedication of our dairy farmers. Your long hours and commitment to produce high quality and safe products in challenging economic times is recognized. Southern States will continue to look for ways to help you maximize yields while efficiently utilizing inputs.
Please accept this calendar as a token of our appreciation for your patronage and a sign of our continuing pledge to provide you with the highest quality products, services and growing solutions.
With best wishes for success in 2009,
