Wisconsin’s top 8 cheeses, according to local chefs

Home to more than 126 cheese plants, Dairy State dairy farmers produce more than 350 different varieties of cheese–double any other state.

Wisconsin daycares could serve 33,000 more kids

The short answer to how Wisconsin daycares could serve 33,000 more kids? Hire more people to take care of those children. It’s a seemingly obvious answer to a problem that many family advocates in recent years have reached crisis level.
