    Nope, you can only get it free from a farmer, even then I'm not sure of the legality of that.

    Fairly sure it's illegal full stop, regardless of where you get it from.

    I think his point was that its illegal to sell it, if the farmer who you know gives it to you for free however, then they can't do much. Just like if he drank it himself

    Hey, all just updating a couple of threads found about Raw Milk so that everyone interested can see current status of raw milk in Ireland.
    It was banned here in 1996, but then EU directive superseded this law and currently sale of raw milk in Ireland is legal.

    However the Minister for Agriculture now plans to ban it once again, thereby removing our right to choose for ourselves what we wish to consume...

    It is certainly not appropriate for ever dairy farm in Ireland to be allowed to sell raw milk, what is appropriate is a system of regulations including clear advisory labels etc for those who do so that consumers can then make an informed choice.

    Hey guysdoes anyone know where to get raw milk in the Limerick area. I used to drink my Uncle's cows milk straight from the bulk tank and miss the taste and energy I used to have from drinking the stuff.

    I grew up on the stuff.

    Lovely :D

    Why not try out a local farmer? Get him to fill a jug for you for the week?

    Raw milk won't last a week, it'll go off after a few days

    Thought it used to last us a week easy

    Quick google

    "When kept at the optimal temperature of 36-38° F. (2.2-3.3°C.) you can expect fresh raw milk to last from 7-10 days."
