I am acquainted with the people involved. For a long time they had arranged to meet their Springfield customers at a parking lot in front of a health food store. I don't think the management of the store had anything to do with it. Anyway, a couple of undercover agents from the Springfield health department came up to them and asked about buying some milk. They were told that they had to make arrangements in advance. The narcs persisted. The farmer allowed as how one of their customers had called to say they wouldn't be coming. So yes, they did have one extra gallon. Well, they went ahead and sold it to them since the narcs really wanted to buy some milk like right now.
Missouri law allows a 'consumer' to purchase raw milk at a dairy farm or arrange for it to be delivered to them. The law does not specifically say that anyone can actually sell raw milk, just that you can buy it. Some people in the legislature have tried over the past few years to clarify the wording to specifically allow the sale of raw milk. That is why the farmer got in trouble, because the undercover agent had not arranged in advance for the delivery but had purchased it on the spot.
