"For animal use only"

The milk is sold as Pet Food, which is not for human consumption. This by no means diminishes the quality of the dairy products. Please do not discuss using these dairy products for yourself or for your family with us.


Summary of FLORIDA Raw Milk Statutes and Administrative Codes
Raw milk sales for human consumption are illegal. The Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services interprets the definition of "sell" in the state administrative code to extend the ban on raw milk sales to any cowshare agreements as well. Department of Agriculture policy permits the sale of raw milk for animal consumption even though there is no state law that covers this issue. The state permits raw milk sales for animal consumption either on the farm or in retail stores. Containers should have a label clearly stating that the raw milk is for animal consumption only.
