How Do You Make the Freshest Chocolate Milk in the World?

On this special podcast episode of "Out of the Blue," we follow a bottle of our "world famous" chocolate milk from the farm to the store. See how Agriculture students start their day at the MTSU Dairy Farm, carefully milking the herd and ensuring top-quality care every step of the way. That fresh milk doesn’t travel far—it heads straight to the MTSU Creamery on campus, where it’s crafted into rich, delicious chocolate milk.The best part? It doesn’t stay on campus. Bottled and ready, it makes its way into local stores across the city. Follow us along on the journey to the best chocolate milk in the world!
