Court was continued regarding the Bechard case.  We will let you know when we know the new court date.

ATTENTION!!

The Weston A. Price Foundation filed a lawsuit against the FDA for banning the interstate sales of raw milk……
WAIT!!!!
Think this doesn’t affect you?

The FDA responded by stating…

“Plaintiffs’ assertion of a ‘fundamental right to their own bodily and physical health, which includes what foods they do and do not choose to consume for themselves and their families’ is similarly unavailing because plaintiffs do not have a fundamental right to obtain any food they wish.”

Save Our Raw Milk

In recent months farmers all over Southwest Missouri have been harassed by the Greene County Health Dept. The Health Dept. has decided that, across the board, no raw milk may be sold in Greene County. There is no law to back up their demands. Raw milk is legal to sell through out Missouri.

What this means to you the consumer, if Greene County has their way, is that you will be forced to drive out to the farm to pick up your life giving raw milk. This would be inconvenient for you and may cause the producers to lose customers as well. In addition, if Greene County realizes that they can boss the small farmer around they will continue to make power grabs and who knows where they will stop.

We have chosen to take a stand for raw milk in southwest Missouri. You can do several things to get involved and help preserve our freedom to purchase the food we desire.

· Sign the petition provided by your raw milk producer.

· Keep in touch with us through our yahoo group to hear about the latest events at the capitol.

· Show your face at our rallies and other events to make it apparent that there are thousands of people that are adamant about their right to purchase raw milk.

· Rally others. The more people we have at these events the more seriously we will be taken.

We are not alone. There was recently a fight very similar to ours in California. The people excited, got involved and made a difference. The law was changed and raw milk is now freely available all throughout the state of California. We can do this.

For more information please talk to your raw milk supplier, check out our website at www.417wapf.com and subscribe to our yahoo group to keep up to date on the latest action on the raw milk front.

Thank you,
