There are a couple states where it was legal to purchase raw milk from dairies. 
 Many people purchase raw milk marked for pet consumption only.  Pasteurized 
milk has all the beneficial enzymes killed out that helps you digest.  The cows 
that are in the commercial dairies have been given growth hormones, 
vaccinations, GM grain and other things that many people want to avoid in their 
lives.  This is the reason people are fighting for legalization and choice.

  I did not know that raw milk was available anywhere in the U.S.  I thought 
that all milk had to be pastuerized.

    Dianne,

        Can you please provide a link or more information on this new law 
against raw milk in California?  I am =n avid consumer of it for myself and my 
dogs, and am now very concerned.  I have not read anything about this, so any 
info would be greatly appreciated.

      There are more attacks on healthy products out there.  California signed 
a bill that will make raw milk unavailable.  We have been working to get it 
legal and it being available in California was a plus.  This will be a major 
set back.

      ON CALIFORNIA RAW MILK


      Dear Chapter Leaders and Members,

      With raw milk politics facing tough battles and having some wonderful 
successes across the United States, raw milk has just been dealt a serious blow 
and has been made illegal in California as of January 1st 2008.
