MARIETTA, Ga. — Some metro Atlanta residents say they're concerned that legislation aimed at allowing grocery stores to sell unprocessed milk will force regulations on farmers and compromise the relationships they have with customers.

Despite that, some say they bypass grocery stores and buy milk directly from farmers because they like knowing where the milk they're drinking comes from and that the product is pure.
