Raw Milk Freedom Riders

The Raw Milk Freedom Riders evolved out of the frustration many consumers and raw milk advocates have regarding the FDA’s policy to investigate, spy and raid farmers across the Nation who are delivering fresh, raw milk across state lines.  The Farm Food Freedom Coalition organized the first Freedom Riders event on November 1, 2011 which transported fresh milk from Pennsylvania into Maryland this caravan of moms then proceeded to join the Rally in front of the FDA headquarters in Silver Spring Maryland where they distributed and drank the milk along with cookies.  The FDA released a statement the same day,  which states ” The FDA has never taken, nor does it intend to take, enforcement action against an individual who purchased and transported raw milk across state lines solely for his or her own personal consumption.”
