Selling Raw Milk for Crafts & Livestock

Hey all,
I'm in Washington state, where selling raw milk is only legal if you're a licensed dairy. But can I sell it for crafting, like lotions and soaps or feeding to animals?
Thanks!

I'm sure you can. What you need to find out is that if there are licenses for that, too.

According to this..

You must have a license.

Raw milk may be sold for three purposes: for further processing, for human consumption, or for animal feed. Each purpose requires a license from the Washington State Department of Agriculture.
