A bill for an act providing for the distribution of raw milk and associated products.

HSB 222 proposes to expand the locations where raw milk producers can distribute raw milk and associated products directly to individuals. Currently, distribution is primarily limited to the producer's dairy farm. This bill would allow distribution at farmers markets and grocery stores, defining these as "distribution points." Raw milk producers would be required to make summaries of animal health tests available at these distribution points upon request. Additionally, at the dairy farm, producers must provide access to detailed health records, including coliform count, standard plate count, and antibiotic administration for their dairy animals. Containers used for distribution must also be labeled and sanitized.
