Two events set for August will focus on raw milk issues.
The 2010 Northeast Raw Milk Symposium takes place on Aug. 13, from 9 a.m. until noon, at the University of Massachusetts at Amherst. It will feature talks by Sally Fallon Morell, president of the Weston A. Price Foundation and founder of A Campaign for Real Milk, and Pete Kennedy, president of the Farm-to-Consumer Legal Defense Fund, an organization devoted to defending the rights of farmers to sell what they produce, and of consumers to have access to those products. Raw milk farmers from Massachusetts, Vermont and Connecticut will also be there to talk about their experiences with selling unpasteurized milk.
The Massachusetts Teat Party, a fundraiser for the Northeast Organic Farming Association/Raw Milk Network, will be held Aug. 12 at Cook Farm, 1 East Hadley Road, Hadley at 6:30 p.m.
