dairies

Butter production sites

Dairies is the plural of dairy—establishments where milk is processed into butter, cheese, and other products, or farms where milk-producing animals are raised.

The word also covers shops selling dairy products and, as an adjective, anything milk-related: dairies across the region, small family dairies.

In some regions, dairy means a convenience store regardless of what it sells.
