Current Regulations in Illinois

[Guest guest]

Does anyone know what the current regulations on raw milk are in

Illinois? At realmilk.com, they list the same thing I found when I

dug up the actual document somewhere a couple years ago: no

advertising and customers have to come get it themselves with their

own containers. But it also says an employee of the state claimed

that if you only had a few cows and weren't selling your milk to a

processor, you wouldn't have an inspector, and you didn't have to

follow those rules. I didn't see that in the regulations, though, so

I don't know if that's true.

I see that some Illinois dairies are now doing cow shares, and I

didn't see anything about that in the regulations or at realmilk.com

either, so maybe things have been changing? I'd like to find out what

the current situation is. Also if there's any Illinois group pushing

for more raw milk freedom, so I could get involved in that.

Thanks,

have you contacted any of the WAPF leaders there in Illinois? maybe they can

answer your

questions.
