Re: My intro-Jojo. West palm beach florida

[Guest guest]

Hi Jojo,

It's wonderful to read your self-intro. And I am super glad you joined

the FTCLDF. HEY! Have you looked into a SHARE program? The main

attorney at Farm to Consumer, my friend Pete Kennedy, lives in FL and

would know the law very well there. If you give him a call he can tell

you if you can do a share program in your state. It's much better than

selling for pet food. You don't " sell " any milk, but you sell your labor

of keeping the goats milked for the " owners " .

If you go this direction, I would take down the raw milk sales page, as

that implies your are selling milk for human consumption, and you

wouldn't be with a share program....only selling your labor.

Anyways, keep us updated.

Talk soon!
