On November 21, 2006 Glencolton Farms, Ontario, Canada was raided by twenty heavily armed guards for distributing raw milk. Consuming and distributing raw milk is illegal in Canada and many states in the United States of America.

Watch this video to get a taste of what large scale milk industry would like to have happen around the world to small local farms that are distributing raw milk. Mankind has consumed raw milk for thousands of years around the world. Does government have a right to tell us what we can and cannot put into our bodies? And once they begin where do they stop?

Back in the 20s, Americans could buy fresh raw whole milk, real clabber and buttermilk, luscious naturally yellow butter, fresh farm cheeses and cream in various colors and thicknesses. Today's milk is accused of causing everything from allergies to heart disease to cancer, but when Americans could buy Real Milk, these diseases were rare. In fact, a supply of high quality dairy products was considered vital to American security and the economic well being of the nation.

More information on this subject and how to get involved can be found at the campaign for Real Milk.
