“Sonoma County once had 300 dairies but now has only 50. In recent years, North Bay farms have seen a rise in litigation from environmental activists alleging they are polluting nearby watersheds. An upcoming Sonoma County ballot measure, the first of its kind in the country, could complicate things even further for these farms. The measure, likely to hit ballots in November, would ban “factory farms,” or ranches with 700 or more dairy cattle, and establish other restrictions.”

It won’t end with just dairy farms. Are they really going to vote for starvation?

And the Harris Ranch in Coalinga? Me and my ex used to stop by their restaurant and have a fancy schmancy meal. Live it up. Then we’d go spend the night at the Motel 6 across the highway.

Perfect. Lawsuits by ‘envrionmentalists’ put small dairies out of business while at the same time, ‘lawmakers’ prohibit large ones.

If I had to guess (from a long way away) the measure will pass. Large dairy farms, kind of smell. People in nice subdivisions don’t like the smell. The fact that the dairy farm was there a century before the subdivision means nothing to the people living in expensive homes and they all can vote, the cows can’t.

They think they won't starve. Just the little people.

And they should never have been born in the first place.
