An area farm was hit with a restraining order to keep them from selling food.

An Amish farmer in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, Amos Miller, has been ordered by a federal judge to stop selling raw milk and other farm products due to violations of food safety regulations. The ruling came after the U.S. Department of Justice filed a complaint against Miller's farm, alleging that his products, sold through a private buying club, posed health risks because they were not pasteurized or inspected. Despite Miller's claims of operating under a private membership agreement and not being subject to federal regulations, the court found that his sales across state lines necessitated compliance with federal food safety laws. The judge's order prohibits Miller from distributing his products until he meets these standards, highlighting ongoing tensions between small-scale, traditional farming practices and modern food safety regulations.
