The Michigan Department of Agriculture and Rural Development (MDARD) advised consumers not to eat any Kuntry Gardens produce or products containing produce from Kuntry Gardens of Homer since it may be contaminated with raw, untreated human waste. During a routine produce safety inspection, MDARD staff identified that Kuntry Gardens was using raw, untreated human waste on the fields where produce was grown for sale to local grocery stores and direct sales. No illnesses have been reported to date. Human waste and other body fluids can spread dangerous infectious diseases such as hepatitis A, Clostridium difficile, E coli, rotavirus, and norovirus if not treated professionally. @ https://www.michigan.gov/mdard/about/media/pressreleases/2022/10/03/dispose-of-kuntry-gardens-products
