Raw milk in Virginia
Herdshare only
Direct sale of unpasteurized milk for human consumption is prohibited by regulation (2VAC5-490-75), but the Virginia Dept. of Agriculture and Consumer Services allows herdshare agreements by policy (no explicit statute) as long as there's a genuine ownership contract.
