State agriculture agencies are increasingly relying on undercover agents to infiltrate consumer buying groups that purchase raw milk from dairy farmers. The goal is to intimidate farmers, so as to dry up the supply of raw milk.

Very sad. These folks are providing a service and a valuable one at that by providing farm products at reasonable prices.

Who wants to rat on their fellow citizens asserting rights guaranteed by the Constitution, like free speech, assembly and those not even mentioned because they seem so obvious, like consuming the foods of their choice? This latter extreme was on display in early May in Elizabethtown, Pennsylvania, where Mennonite dairy farmer Glenn Wise was charged with three counts of selling unpasteurized milk without a license.

Just curious, why would anyone go to this trouble for raw milk?
