Raw Milk Sold in Leola, Other Regional Pa. Stores, Linked to Intestinal Illness, State Warns
- The Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture warned consumers on April 1, 2025, to discard Meadow View Jerseys raw milk purchased since that date in four counties of southcentral Pennsylvania.
- The warning came after tests revealed that raw milk with sell-by dates from mid-April through early July 2025 was contaminated with Campylobacter, leading to intestinal illness in individuals who consumed it.
- The raw milk was distributed in glass half-gallon containers, as well as plastic half-gallon and gallon sizes, and made available at the farm’s retail location in Leola along with various grocery stores throughout Berks, Dauphin, Lancaster, and Lebanon counties.
- Campylobacteriosis symptoms, such as diarrhea, fever, and stomach cramps, usually develop within a few days after exposure and occur most frequently in children, although individuals of any age can be affected.
- The outbreak highlights the health risks of raw milk, especially for vulnerable groups, as Campylobacter infections can rarely spread to the bloodstream, causing severe illness in immunocompromised individuals.
