Mid-Michigan will gain 300 new jobs soon thanks to a major new $510-million milk processing campus that will be built in St. Johns, north of Lansing.
The larger of two new facilities will cost $425 million and will include a 146-acre dairy processing facility built in St. Johns and create 259 new jobs. That plant will process more than 8 million pounds of milk per day, turning it into cheese and other dairy products.
Adjacent to that plant, a second new facility costing $85 million and employing up to 38 new workers will produce whey permeate powder used in animal feed and other uses.
