FROM FARM TO FRIDGE: THE MILK LIFE CYCLE CHALLENGE
The Arcade Experience
It’s not just one decision.
It’s the system behind it.
From Farm to Fridge is an immersive, game-based simulation where you step into the role of a milk company navigating environmental impact, trade-offs, and rising expectations. You’ll race to map the full milk life cycle, then shift into strategy mode, redesigning your system through investment, innovation, and tough decisions. As your choices play out, you’ll see how data, assumptions, and priorities directly shape sustainability outcomes.
