Nestled in the heart of Delaware Valley University’s scenic campus, the Dairy Center stands as a cornerstone of the school’s rich agricultural heritage.

Serving as both a working farm and a dynamic learning environment, the Dairy Center gives students hands-on experience with animal care, farm operations, and the daily rhythms of life on a modern dairy farm. As the university gears up for A-Day—a cherished three-day festival that brings together students, families, alumni, and the local community—t he Dairy Center is preparing to take center stage.

A-Day, short for “Activities Day,” is a time-honored tradition that showcases student projects, livestock exhibitions, local vendors, and interactive demonstrations, all while celebrating the agricultural roots that define DelVal. In this exclusive video interview, we go behind the scenes at the Dairy Center to hear from the students and staff who work hard getting the cows ready to be shown and learning how hard these students work here on campus.
