The Michigan Dept. of Agriculture last year forced Joe and Brenda Golimbieski, the owners of Hill High Dairy and Jenny Samuelson, the owner of My Family Co-op, to dump 248 gallons of organic milk and destroy 100 dozen eggs along with fresh cream, butter and cheese after accusing them of “selling food without a license.”
Their farm is a co-op, however, where people must buy shares to obtain food. The MDA stated that their contracts were invalid so the food wasn’t ‘shared’, but ‘sold’.
GO TO PAGE 2:
This is What happens when farmers don’t have valid contracts and licensing up to date? Did they have a license or was there contracts valid or not. Its a yes or no question. If not which they probably didnt since you put accused instead of with there paperwork up to date trying to manipulate the story to fit your cause and help your argument I’m still telling the truth is probably why it got Dumped. go get the public amped up by telling your version of it and missing the main facts
Too Much Government!!!!
THIS IS JUST A BUNCH OF BULL

“Not excusing the actions of the state… think it’s abominable. However, maybe the grounds were that the contracts that the folks at My Co-op WERE invalid in the way they were worded, and that’s the grounds the state used. If the contracts weren’t drawn up properly, then the state has grounds to challenge them, and make them dispose of the food. That’s what I would look at, first, before accusing the state of over-reaching their boundaries. Since it was stated in the article, the state declared the contracts invalid… that was my first clue.”
