Hey... It’s The Raw Milk Tipping Point!
The safety and sensibility of raw grass-fed milk is finally hitting the consciousness of mainstream Americans! People are talking about it everywhere. In Canada the CDC is open to the subject… in NY the Wall Street Journal is publishing it… in WI the jurors from Vernon Hershberger’s trial not only acquitted him but are now signing up to buy raw milk from his farm.
Unbelievable! But that’s not all!
Local medical doctors have become Family Cow farm store customers… the GI specialists at John Hopkins Hospital in Baltimore MD are (covertly) sending patients our way for raw milk kefir to help their Crones, Ulcerated Colitis, or IBD… Registered Nurses, MDs and other mainline health professionals are joining our drop points and referring clients.
And as if that is not enough… next week, specifically at the request of Penn State University educators, I start a series of four presentations on raw milk safety. Penn State has been conducting educational seminars for the 160 permitted raw milk dairymen of PA and Dr. Ernest Hovingh asked me to present the logic and practicality of other raw milk farmers operating their own raw milk laboratory. I look forward to demonstrating The Family Cow’s ground-breaking, on-farm raw milk test and hold protocol.
Of course early adopters have been aware of the health and healing of raw milk for a long time. But you educated, awake folks are so far above the average that we weren’t sure when mainstream America would wake up! Looks like that time has come.
This is exciting! We have made so much progress since we started selling raw milk 5 years ago that it is actually hard to grasp how far public perception has changed. We are obviously winning the information war. It reminds me of Gandhi’s wisdom on fighting for self-evident truth. He said, "First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win."
Raw milk is entering the winning stage, folks! (There is still a bit of fighting to do, but that will soon pass.) At the Family Cow we are gearing up to mentor a lot of new raw milk farm families to learn the ropes. They will be needed to meet the coming demand! :)
Keep up the good work, friends, in spreading the news, opening minds and helping your friends get on board. They will forever thank you.
Looks like we are reaching the tipping point! :)
All the best ~ Edwin and Dawn Shank and Family

Raw Milk is Acknowledged as a Low-Risk Food
The Scientists are Coming Around!
My Prediction: It will take the Government longer to admit it!
A few weeks ago, researcher Nadine Ijaz made a well-received evidence review on unpasteurized milk at the British Columbia (Canada) Centre for Disease Control (BC CDC). Quantitative Microbial Risk Assessments (QMRAs) recently published in the Journal of Food Protection have demonstrated that unpasteurized milk is a low-risk food. The Wall Street Journal ran the full story.
Ijaz is an independent researcher with expertise and training in the transdisciplinary analysis of integrative health care issues. She has taught at professional schools in her field since 2001, including courses in scientific research methods. She was previously staff nutritionist at Canada's premiere integrative medical cancer care centre. Ijaz has pursued a scholarly interest in questions around unpasteurized milk and industrial dairying over the last fifteen years, and her current work represents a synthesis of this research. Her work on unpasteurized milk is currently under consideration for peer-review publication.
