More Raw Milk Found With Listeria

By Marler Clark

Ben Hackman, writing for the Lebanon Daily News,  reports Raw Milk testing positive for listeria.   The farm near Jonestown, PA is one of 113 farms with Raw Milk permits from the state.  Hackman writes:

Milk from a Jonestown-area farm has tested positive for bacteria that can make people sick, prompting a warning to customers to throw away any raw milk purchased there in the past month.

Milk samples taken from the farm, Beulah Land Jerseys, on April 8 tested positive for the bacterium Listeria monocytogenes on Monday, according to a news release from the state Department of Agriculture.

Anyone who purchased raw milk from the farm after March 18 should discard it immediately, Agriculture Secretary Dennis Wolff said in the release.
