Family Farmstead Dairy Recalls Raw Milk Cheddar Over E. Coli Concerns
Family Farmstead Dairy has recalled raw milk cheddar cheese sold in New York, New Jersey, and five other states due to concerns over E. coli contamination.
New York, NY, October 16, 2026 —
Family Farmstead Dairy has recalled raw milk cheddar cheese sold in New York, New Jersey and five other states because of concerns over possible E. coli contamination, according to the available information about the recall.
The summary does not identify the five other states, the product’s brand or package details, or how much cheese was included. It also does not provide a lot number, best-by date, or other information that would help distinguish recalled products. The specific basis for the contamination concern and whether any illnesses have been reported were not provided.
No recall announcement date or information about where the cheese was sold beyond the seven states was included. The available information also does not say whether the recall was voluntary, whether a government agency was involved, or what steps the dairy has taken beyond recalling the cheese. The company’s location and contact details were not provided.
The stated reason for the recall is concern over E. coli contamination. The information provided does not specify whether contamination was confirmed through testing or whether the concern arose in another way, so the recall should not be described as evidence that the cheese was confirmed to contain the bacteria.
Further details about the affected products, the scope of distribution and any health effects were not included in the summary. As a result, the available account establishes that Family Farmstead Dairy recalled raw milk cheddar in seven states, but does not provide enough information to identify specific packages or clarify the circumstances behind the recall.
