OKEECHOBEE -- On March 3, Southeast Milk Inc. recognized the Rucks Family of Milking R. Inc. as one of the recipients of Southeast Milk, Inc.’s annual Top Quality Milk Award.
“The Rucks family has long been a pillar of the Florida dairy industry and their hometown of Okeechobee, FL. Owner Sutton Rucks currently serves as Vice President of the cooperative, reflecting the family’s ongoing leadership and commitment to excellence,” Southeast Milk Inc. shared on social media.
“Beyond producing high-quality milk, the family regularly opens their farm for tours, welcoming the public to see firsthand the care and dedication behind the milk and dairy products we enjoy every day—including their own branded milk and ice cream. It’s a must-stop destination for anyone visiting the area in search of a sweet treat. Just ask the Publix dairy team, who visited the farm this week.
“Congratulations to the Rucks family, and thank you for your continued dedication to Southeast Milk, Florida dairy, and the communities you serve.”
