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’.

We have hungry people here in the United States and Churches begging for food to feed the hungry. The Michigan Department of Agriculture should change it’s rules and on dump stuff that is contaiminated ….. The Dept of Agriculture is sure a bunch of dumb clucks
Nothing like the heavy hand of the government coming down on mom-and-pop businesses. You know God for bid us poor folk make any money…
What is going on is WE ALL SET BACK AND TYPE OUR GRIPES INSTEAD OF HAVING THE BACKBONE TO TELL THE GOVERNMENT THEY “WORK FOR WE THE PEOPLE”.
If you control the food and water supply you control the population, do you all see where this is headed?
and the hungry>>>>>> still hungry…because they aren’t ILLEGAL ??
Feed our hungry.
Just more of the same. Kill off as many people, businesses as possible, kill jobs, what ever until we are beaten completely down !!
This is bullcrap!!!
What a terrible waste!! This is just plain stupid when so many people are barely keeping food on the table for some bureacracy to force them to dump all that perfectly good food!! What is this country coming to??
Of all the people and children going hungry our government are hypocrites to starve people and make hard working farmers to dump their milk and everything else is wrong and lose so much money. I was brought up on a large farm, I remember at 5 years old I had to milk 3 cows by hand, we did not have electricity and we had about 20 cows as I got older I had milk more each year. The gov agents came and took 4 of their best milk cows (I don’t trust the government). My father never got a straight forward answer.
