No fresh milk in the countryside

FRESH milk is now “impossible to find” in rural areas – especially those where there are a large amount of dairy cows – claims an activist for old-fashioned, locally made food.

This comes as farmers have been protesting over milk prices of just 300 euros for 1000 litres, which they say is not enough to make a living from (an agreement has been reached raising it to at least €340 until December, but many farmers say this still just represents cost price). 

Val says  we no longer buy fresh milk, have not done in years of being here, just too difficult.  yet we always had fresh milk when in the UK.
