Several government officials on Thursday stormed into a building on Amos Miller’s Lancaster County organic farm and conducted an illegal hours-long raid without notice, eventually leaving with multiple coolers containing the Amish farmer’s property.
The Lancaster Patriot reported the ‘search’ was performed by the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture employees with three Pennsylvania State policemen aiding them.
As the outlet notes, a search warrant was issued Wednesday by Magisterial District Judge B. Denise Commins. It also included an affidavit of ‘probable cause’ by Sheri Morris, Acting Bureau Director of Food Safety with the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture.
Morris claims in the affidavit that Miller failed to file applications from the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture “for registration, licensing, or permitting under the pertinent Retail Food Facility Safety Act, Food Safety Act, or Milk Sanitation Laws.”
A report of seized property provided to Miller revealed the officials seized 37 types of foods, including sour cream, chocolate milk, ice cream, and eggnog. They also took food from a walk-in cooler door, which contains hundreds of items and represents a significant portion of Miller’s products.
There is probably an ulterior motive involved in the raid. Miller detests Big Agriculture, which is one of the biggest government monopolies and has found a market for people who want sustainable and cleaner food products.
The products at his farm are sold to members of his farm’s private association rather than the general public. Congressman Thomas Massie (R-KY) suggests Miller was likely targeted because he dares to sell food without participating in the industrial meat complex.
