no issues with this as long as there are some controls.
The only milk I had for the first decade and a half of my life was "raw" milk. It came from our own milk cows, and it was never an issue because we knew how to handle it. And to be completely honest it does taste so much better.
As long as it is not allowed to be distributed and is isolated for local pickup, the burden and decision should be left to those who want to consume it. People should also be required to sign off before they buy the stuff to acknowledge that they understand what they are getting and how to handle the risks involved in getting it from an unknown source.
