ANTI-RAW MILK AGENDAS, DIRTY TRICKS, AND CORRUPT FDA/MEDIA

Kaleigh Stanziani — July 11, 2024

FDA and affiliated “Food Safety Attorney” attempting to punish RAW FARM by rehashing 10-month-old news. There is NO RECALL.

Let this be clear, we have been in a battle for years with the FDA over your right to access clean delicious raw milk.  This is just the most recent of a long history of dirty tricks. IF YOU SEE CONCERNING AND QUESTIONABLE HEADLINES, PLEASE BE VERY CLEAR WE ARE IN A WAR ZONE WITH A CORRUPT SYSTEM THAT HATES RAW MILK.

We are disappointed that the media has taken an old story of our 2023 salmonella recall and made it appear to be a new issue.  

There is no “new recall”, our products are safer and more delicious than ever.  

There is a long-standing hatred of raw milk by a particular publicity-seeking, “food safety attorney” with close connections to the FDA.  Your support of our family farm allows us to continue this important battle for your freedom to choose nourishing and whole foods for your family.  Our hearts are filled with purpose and we will never stop fighting for your health and immune system.  

Mark, first, my beef is with the California Sate Health Department that spiked that your products sickened at least 165 people in four states with a combination of Salmonella, Campylobacter and E. coli (you are not illegally selling milk across state lines again?).

BTW, Mark, have I missed any outbreaks and recalls linked to your product?

In addition to the one that has sickened at least 165 and was recalled in October 2023.
