My dad, maybe 20 years ago, took me to a Mennonite farming operation, and it was sugar cane harvest time....with the family in full production of molasses. Probably 5,000 jars laid out, and a dozen members of the family working on filling, securing and labeling the jars. If you asked me on sanitation....yeah, there were probably sixteen different fed standards in violation. But this was probably the safest operation in existence.

One of the biggest threats to the USDA and FDA is healthy Amish families.

Lots of Amish and Old Order Mennonite here in St Mary’s County.
I went to an Amish saw mill a few years back for some poplar siding.
It was so loud - near the mill that you had to walk away. There was a
20 something kid working the mill with no hearing protection- when I asked about they said he was born deaf so we put him to work here.

providing food to ‘club members’ is the practice required to avoid the bs regulations being pushed by the feds.

and now it seems the feds are going to ignore the fact that it’s a ‘private club’ providing goods to its members.

very quickly the question becomes ... why?

why would the feds care? why would they attempt to penetrate a private club?

there’s far more to this than a few hundred gallons of milk.

Sometimes, you don’t know if it is real or if it’s parody.

A couple of decades ago an enterprising farmer here in Ontario tried to bend the rule that says that cow owners can drink unpasteurized milk from their own cows. So he sold shares in his modest number of bovines. Win-win, right? No. Our insidious dairy marketing board and dept of health shut him down.
As Hayek intoned, economic freedom begets political freedom.

The FedGuv is hostile to farming at every level. The big corporate operations can deal with their BS. The small operators get shut down. More concentration in the agricultural sector, and the customer gets screwed.

Ultimately, we become dependent on a few suppliers, and that makes us all vulnerable. Look at what is happening in the energy sector. The price is high, but nobody is ramping up production. The big boys are making more money on smaller volumes, and there are no little guys to break up the game. The entire economy is screwed.

But I can drive less. People gotta eat. If these morons succeed in making food hard to find, it’s gonna get real ugly, real fast.

Seems like I remember this from months back and it was record keeping that was the issue. He would have to use a computer to do the type of record keeping that fedgov wants but he shuns new technology like computers.

Going to email Liberty Counsel, I wonder if they will help Amish Farmers because ultimately would help everyone

This evil practice must be stopped!

Miller isn’t dependent on big industry players or the government, and he’s providing healthy food to his community the way he believes God intended. The government is trying to intimidate his operation and shut it down.

And that’s why the armed jackboots from FedGov will shut him down. FedGov is a fascist operation. Only Big Pharma, Big Tech, and Big Agra allowed. Small independent businesses will be crushed out of existence because the government can’t control them and the mega corporations have bribed the politicians to destroy them.

Supporting local food producers without government sanction should be a priority for every non-compliant patriot. Be healthier and less governable.

Our fascist government is aiming its forces at the Amish? People who are no threat to anyone? People who commit essentially no crime?

Looks like our fascist government is taking out an easy target first. Then they’ll come for other no-threat targets, like the Mormons. Who’s next in their battle against religion?
