[QUOTE="farmerjan, post: 1552769, member: 25884"] For a list of states and their requirements, go to "Real Milk.com" . It is the site from the Weston A Price foundation. It has a list of every state, current regulations, herd shares etc. Here in Va it is prohibited to sell raw milk, but many do it on herd shares or cow shares. Also. Farm to Consumer Legal Defense Fund is a legal group that has a "course" for farmers to take to make sure they are aware of all the intricasies of raw milk. They also are involved with supporting and helping with legal contracts etc. FTCLDF has represented the farmer in California (? maybe got the state wrong) several years ago in a fight about raw milk and such. At an average of $5 to $7 a HALF gallon, raw milk sales, or cow shares, can be the only way a dairy farmer can make it pay. Or the ones that can do things like cheeses etc., and sell at farmers markets. Here it has to cheeses that are made using pasteurized milk. In Vermont, the famous Cabot Cheese company has a raw milk cheddar that we used to get when I lived in Conn.. and belonged to a food co-op. Vt allows milk to be sold from the farm and maybe even allows it to be sold at farmers markets... I can't remember. [/QUOTE]
