Dairy Alternatives Month, also known as Dairy Alternative Month, takes place throughout June and encourages people to explore plant-based alternatives to dairy. It is a chance to try replacing familiar dairy products with non-dairy options and learn more about the choices available. Campaign materials for dairy-free living describe these alternatives as a way to make simple everyday swaps, while the Choose Dairy-Free campaign celebrates plant-based alternatives to dairy.
The month is associated with the Vegan Awareness Network (VEGANET). No further information about its founding or history is documented in the available sources.
