Right now the bill only allows for sales at the farm. My farm is almost 90 miles from the nearest city. This puts me at a competitive disadvantage to farms that are close to cities, More important, it makes getting your milk very inconvenient, and is environmentally unsound in that it causes alot of unnecessary driving and pollution.

Here is a copy of the bill:
