US Government Raids Amish Farm & Seizes His Property: "Shocking Display Of Overreach" (Video)

The federal government and even the state government were never designed to engage in this kind of tyranny against those they were supposed to serve.  Yet, month after month and year after year, we read about stories like this in which these criminal enterprises come in and destroy a local economy, a man’s livelihood and cast doubt on those things which God gave us to sustain us.  They do all this while promoting as “safe and effective” the dangerous “foods,” “drinks” and various other things such as pharmaceuticals.  Such is the case with an Amish farmer in Virginia, whose farm was raided and his property seized for simply providing something worthwhile and healthy to his community.  However, he is fighting back.

“They came with a search warrant,” softly spoke Samuel B. Fisher, a mild-mannered cattle farmer operating a 100-acre farm tucked away in Virginia’s heartland. Fisher’s bread-and-butter, Golden Valley Farms, carves out the scenic countryside that’s a hop, skip, and a jump away from historic Farmville, a postcard-perfect small Southern town with classical Main Street charm.

The father of five had graciously invited us down to his idyllic pasture to rehash the whirlwind of unforeseen events that unfolded over the cruel summer. It was a tumultuous time on the Fisher farm, an upheaval that threatened to upend the man’s livelihood.

“Then, they tagged the meat, so that we can’t touch it; we can’t sell it; we can’t feed our family with it,” Fisher told Townhall.

Of course, the USDA thugs wanted their cut for “approval” of what the man was naturally producing.

The firestorm of Big Government saber-rattling ignited in mid-June when an inspector with the Virginia Department of Agriculture & Consumer Services (VDACS), without warning, paid the Fisher family a visit. Fisher has “no idea” what could have prompted VDACS’s impromptu inspection on June 14, except “maybe they just finally found us through word of mouth,” he speculated.

What was clear: The state sought to penalize Fisher for selling meat that was not processed by a USDA-inspected facility (U.S. Department of Agriculture). Fisher processes—an industry euphemism for butchering—his farm-raised meat on-site and sells it directly to his customers, feeding about 500 consumers and their families, who are part of a buying club. As members enrolled in the Golden Valley Farms membership program, they’ve bought into Fisher’s herd of 100% grass-fed golden Guernsey cows.

“They own part of the business. They own some of the herd,” Fisher explained. “My thinking was […] We can butcher their cows, process it, and sell it to them. I told the state all of this, but they said, ‘No, there’s no way around that. You can’t do that.’ They asked permission to get in here” to search the farm, a request Fisher denied. “And, they told me, ‘We’ll be back,’ and left.”

Of course, they did return with the sheriff to enforce this tyranny.  However, there was nothing unlawful about Mr. Fisher processing his own meat for his own consumption.

There’s “nothing illegal” about Fisher processing his own meat and eating it for his own consumption, asserted Mindy, the farm’s officer manager, who oversees sales, handles email marketing, and fulfills online orders. “So, he decided he was gonna go and feed his family, and since he would most likely be fined for doing that, he decided to open up meat sales again. Because if he’s going to be fined, he’s going to be fined, and you might as well do it,” she, wanting to go by “just Mindy,” stated matter-of-factly.

They went on not only to seize his farm but also criminally charge him.
