AI Summary
This bill seeks to provide for the manufacture and distribution of raw milk. It amends Chapter 94 of the General Laws to allow licensed dairy farmers to sell raw milk directly to consumers, either through delivery or at the farmer's farm stand, even if the stand is not contiguous to the dairy. The bill also requires the Department of Agricultural Resources and the Department of Public Health to adopt regulations governing the handling, packaging, storage, testing, and transportation of raw milk, and mandates that raw milk sold under this law must be labeled with the identity of the farm and a warning that the milk is not pasteurized.
