Neither do I! That's why I'll second the motion to join the Farm-to-

Consumer Legal Defense Fund. That is the umbrella group we all

desperately need. It was formed by WAP to bring everyone together to

have lawyers to represent any and all of us, paid for by

contributions from farmers and consumers alike.

We have gotten our membership fees back many times over already when

Missouri sent out cease-and-desist letters last fall. We are now in a

stronger position here than ever before...as a result of the

intervention by the FTCLDF, we now have a letter in hand signed by

the Exec Director of the State Milk Board apologizing for

the 'misunderstanding', and assuring us that it is legal to sell milk

and cream from the farm without a permit after all.

This group is representing Mark McAfee in the ongoing California raw

milk debate, if it can be called that.

I urge you all to let your customers and real food enthusiast friends

know that if we all joined this group, we would be able to present a

team of lawyers for any trouble that might come up, and it appears

that it will keep coming up. Let's band together and form a strong

united front, not just in rhetoric but in actual dollars backing up a

great team of dedicated people to help defend our rights to good

food.
