Urgent call to save Raw Milk Products

[Dan Craig-Morse]

Organic Pastures products (out of Fresno) products have been recalled due to an alleged e-coli incident and they are sounding the alarm that the FDA may use this incident to, like all the other 49 states in the US, to ban raw milk products for human consumption. But the politics behind it go deep issues of FDA control, "food safety" at the expense of food quality, and government enforced old health paradigms that are weakening our heatlh. Here is a letter from Mark McAfee, Owner of Organic Pastures, supplier of Raw milk, cream, butter and kefir products to Whole Foods, Andys, and Bills.

Dear OPDC Fresh Unprocessed Raw Milk Consumer..Raw Milk needs you
now!!!

If there is any possible way that you can travel to the dairy for a
press conference to be held at 1400 hours (2pm) on Friday. It is critical to
your continued access to safe raw milk. We need each and every one of
you!!

You may loose raw milk forever.

Take the kids out of school or better yet bring the whole class.

I will be speaking to the national and international press about your
right to access safe Fresh Unprocessed Milk from Grass Fed Cows.

The press needs to see and hear you.they need to hear your stories.

The press and the public will be provided test results and
comprehensive documentation at that time.

Until that time CDFA has demanded a "gag order" on all press
statements made by OPDC. This has been negotiated by the legal teams of
CDFA and OPDC.

The entire story will be told at that time. The gag order will be
lifted.

Join the raw revolution..only living milk brings life!!!

Here is the update from Organic Pastures. Hurray!!

To our Dear Friends and Customers, Thank you for your concern and support over this last week. We understand that the young people who were sickened are now recovering. All of us here at Organic Pastures have so appreciated hearing how much our raw dairy products mean to you.

We are pleased to announce that the quarantine on our products has been lifted by the California Department of Food and Agriculture. Many thanks to the CDFA for the opportunity to work with them to ensure the health and safety of consumers.

We know there is confusion about what has happened in the last days, and want to share with you the information we have. Here is the course of events:

On September 21st we received word from the California Department of Food and Agriculture of possible bacterial contamination of our milk and milk products. We immediately initiated a recall to ensure the safety of our customers. We began working with state and independent investigators to determine if, indeed, our milk had been contaminated by E Coli.

The families of the four children struck with E-Coli (and are recovering well, we are pleased to say) reported that among the foods they had recently ingested were raw milk or raw colostrum, which pointed food inspectors to our dairy. However, 100% negative test results suggest another cause.

State investigators tested samples acquired from the families, and conducted what we understand were over 600 tests of our farm, cows, pasture, milking equipment, and milk products. No E-Coli was found.

So, after all this testing, it remains a fact that no E-Coli has ever been found in any Organic Pastures product.

It has now been determined without question that our health conscious consumers may continue to enjoy our pure, unprocessed, nutrient-rich milk. We will do our very best to ensure our milk is on your market shelves as soon as possible.

America is a country that first and foremost, honors freedom. While we deeply respect and value the work of government agencies to keep us safe, and appreciate our partnership in supporting this mission, we sincerely believe in the right to choose ones' food. But with freedom comes responsibility. Organic Pastures fully recognizes the great responsibility we have in providing a whole, unprocessed food that is safe, delicious, fresh, and always – I'll say it again: always – found free of dangerous pathogens.

For hundreds of thousands of years before industrial agriculture, humans were blessed with perfect, natural, unprocessed food sources. We believe that raw milk, with its multitude of beneficial properties, is one of Creation's biggest gifts to mankind. Our milk is produced according to Nature's blueprint, and for the sake of people everywhere, we hope to keep it that way.

Thank you again for your concern – let's stay in touch!

Organic Pastures and our associates are soliciting funds to make a documentary film about raw milk. You can help bring the story of this incredible healing food to the screen

When it comes to raw milk, Americans are asleep at the plate. Our film will awaken them to the "Raw Truth", and you'll receive the benefits of increased consumer demand: more availability and lower costs for raw dairy products. Part of the footage has already been shot—we now need funds to complete the project. Be part of the Raw Milk Revolution! Your dollars will make a difference. Send checks payable to White Tiger Productions, C/O First Republic Bank, 1099 4th St. San Rafael, CA 94901
