646229 Thu Aug 20 14:22:12 -0700 2009 8 2 Los Angeles Area 0 4963520 There are some old threads on this, but none recent, so I'm trying it again - I currently buy my raw milk from the Hollywood Farmer's Market - Organic Pastures. I'd like to find a new source. I'd also like to support the farmer as directly as possible - I try to avoid Whole Foods because of their massive markups. Any other raw milk sellers at local farmer's market, even a co-op situation where you rent the cow, anything? Hollywood and the Valley are very convenient; if it's a good enough deal I'll go wherever I can get to on a day off. Thu Aug 20 14:22:12 -0700 2009 19626 thursday 1 4964454 i read on the OP website that they deliver through ups. Not sure how UPS can deliver milk though. Anyways there's a number on there and they also have some sort of store in glendale. http://www.organicpastures.com/shop.html buy direct hub location OPDC HUB Raw Milk Store 3040 Rosslyn St. Los Angeles, CA 90065 Cross Street: I-5 and Los Feliz Blvd. Let me know how it works out. I usually get it at my health food store on magnolia here in burbank. It's way cheaper than whole foods.

Thu Aug 20 21:57:48 -0700 2009 4964454 19626 thursday 3 4964571 ok, i saw another label next to OP at my health store. It was also raw. I'll have to check if it's local. It was in one of those glass bottles. I've been drinking this raw stuff only recently and I really like the taste. Thu Aug 20 22:33:45 -0700 2009 4964532 186186 cartbaby 1 4964637 I have seen a raw milk seller at the Torrance farmer's market on Saturday, on the southern side more towards the food stalls. Have no idea who he is or if his prices are fair, but it might be a lead. Thu Aug 20 23:55:42 -0700 2009 4963520 15783 young_chower 1 4965004 Does anyone know if there is a raw goat's milk farmer direct?

Healthy Family Farms will certainly sell you raw goats milk yogurt. It's very liquidy so may be an acceptable substitute for goats milk depending on your needs. Fri Aug 21 10:27:08 -0700 2009 4965004 182615 houndofmusic 1 4965228 Theres a place called Rawsome in Venice. All they sell is everthing raw including all kinds of raw dairy, cows milk, goats milk, goats yougart, cottage cheese, keifer. Its quite extensive and they do deal directly with farmers and its not orgainic pastures. Its actually a bit sort of underground and you have to join. The membership is $25 a year. But well worth it. They sell the cleanest food you can buy. The quality is exceptional. The address is 665 Rose Ave in Venice just west of Lincoln. Oh yes and only open on Wednesdays and Saturdays. Fri Aug 21 07:58:37 -0700 2009 4963520 1103389 lmt824 2 4965768 Rawsome is hardcore for raw products. They take a lot of pride in all of their food products, store their products at just above freezing, and are maticulous in inspecting their shipments. I had their raw goat milk there the other day, and it was amazing. I think I would just forewarn you that most of the folks working there appear stuck back in the '70s - they're pretty hippy-diippy, but very nice folks.
