Looking for raw milk in Minnesota? Farm Direct Minnesota helps connect customers with local dairy farms so they can ask about availability, on-farm pickup rules, containers, dairy animals, herd practices, and farm-direct dairy options.

Important Minnesota Raw Milk Note

Minnesota law restricts raw milk sales for human consumption. According to the Minnesota Department of Agriculture, consumers may go directly to dairy farms on an occasional basis to purchase raw milk directly from the farmer. Farmers are not allowed to bottle raw milk for sale, consumers must bring their own container, and off-farm raw milk sales violate state law.

Always contact the farm before visiting, ask about current availability, and follow Minnesota Department of Agriculture guidance.

Farm-Direct Dairy Options to Ask About

• Raw cow milk: Ask the farm about availability, pickup rules, and containers.
• A2/A2 dairy: Some farms may offer A2/A2 milk or dairy animals.
• Raw goat milk: Some dairy farms may offer goat milk directly from the farm.
• Herd shares: Ask each farm how its dairy access model works and what is allowed.

Minnesota On-Farm Purchase Rules

• On-farm only: Raw milk must be purchased directly at the farm where it is produced.
• Bring your own container: Minnesota farmers are not allowed to bottle raw milk for sale.
• Call ahead: Always confirm availability, pickup rules, and farm instructions before visiting.
