Ballerina Farm pauses raw milk sales after samples fail health tests

Records show that health inspectors found two health violations during milk testing in summer 2025.

(Francisco Kjolseth | The Salt Lake Tribune) Ballerina Farm’s Dairy Farm in Kamas, Utah is a 328-acre farm with around 190 cows. The farm produces products like yogurt, soft serve, protein ice cream and different types of cheeses.

Ballerina Farm, the Wasatch Back dairy farm with a global social media following, is no longer selling raw milk. The decision comes after bacteria were found in some samples over the summer.

Lifestyle influencers Hannah and Daniel Neeleman, known online as Ballerina Farm, have attracted millions of followers eager for glimpses into their life of dairy farming in the Kamas Valley.

In 2025, the couple opened two brick-and-mortar locations: a small farm stand in Kamas, then a larger farm store in Midway.

When the Kamas farm stand opened, the Neelemans said they had dreamed of sharing raw milk from the dairy ever since starting their farm.

But Ballerina Farm hit pause within months of beginning raw milk sales after it failed a pair of milk safety tests.
