Lehigh Valley Dairy Farms celebrates the holiday season with a focus on simple joys including new, limited-time holiday packaging on their most popular products - milk, cream, half and half and egg nog. The milk packaging depicts a winter scene that comes alive on the dairy'ss web site through an animated game found on the homepage Lehigh Valley Dairy Farms (www.lehighvalleydairyfarms.com) featuring more than 10 holiday animations providing fun for children and families. The packaging, on shelf now in major supermarkets, is available for a limited time through the holidays.
Sometimes it is the simple things that make a holiday extra special, said Derek Archambault, Marketing Manager, Lehigh Valley Dairy Farms. Our new packaging is one small way that we can
send a warm holiday greeting to each and every one of our consumers. We also know that holiday gatherings and meals are a very special time for families and the new packaging is our way
of helping consumers to create a beautiful holiday table setting. We'sve also developed four new holiday recipes (http://www.lehighvalleydairyfarms.com/recipes/holiday.php) that are easy and affordable without sacrificing taste - two
things we know are especially important to our consumers this year.
We have been part of the local community for over 70 years but this is the first time we'sre doing seasonal packaging. The artwork on our milk gallons is reminiscent of an old-fashioned
Pennsylvania Christmas so we'sre very excited about it, added Frank Mariello, General Manager of Lehigh Valley Dairy Farms. We hope our consumers feel the same way about it that we do -
that it is special enough to be part of their holiday table.
