(Infowars) State troopers on Thursday raided an organic farm in Pennsylvania that specializes in selling raw milk, organic eggs, grass-fed beef and other nutritious foods to private buyers.
Footage out of Bird-in-Hand filmed by The Lancaster Patriot’s Chris Hume shows state agents executing a search warrant and confiscating products at the Millers Organic Farm owned by Amish farmer Amos Miller.
As reported by Hume on a GoFundMe page created in support of the Millers, “Under the watchful eye of Pennsylvania State Troopers, and the backing of a search warrant, agents of the state entered Amos’ property, spent hours inside his buildings, and then hauled off some of his products. The remaining products they are forbidding Amos from selling, effectively ending his business until further notice.”
Hume gave updates from the scene as the raid was carried out, reporting agents wouldn’t allow Miller to be present while they rifled through his company’s items.
While a precise reason for the latest raid has not been given, Miller’s all-natural farm, which only sells to people in its private member association, has been under the microscope of state and federal agencies in recent years for operating outside of agricultural regulations.
For instance, the Millers do not pasteurize their raw milk, they don’t inject their animals with vaccines or other chemicals, and they don’t use fertilizer to grow crops.
“The farm raises its animals and other pure foods the way nature intended and we are proud to be entirely chemical, cruelty and GMO-free,” the Miller’s website states.

Some of what this farmer sells is probably safe, other products, not so much. Specifically the milk. Unpasteurized milk is frequently contaminated with bacteria, especially Salmonella. Pasteurization does not harm the quality of the milk while killing harmful pathogens. Anyone profiting from selling food must insure what that sell is safe. Generally it's the state's job to insure food vendors sell safe products. This is NOT cut and dried government overreach.
