They were distributed at various locations, including Peacock Hill Dairy in Richmond County, Miller’s Country Store in Farmville, Pineview Bulk Food & Deli in Farmville, Spring Hollow Grocery in Buckingham County, Country Corner Dairy in Charlotte County, Cedar Grove Auction in Charlotte County, Hollering Hill Auction in Halifax County, and Central Virginia Produce Auction in Buckingham County.

If you have purchased any of these products with the specified batch/date stamp, you can return them to the place of purchase for an exchange or refund. No illnesses have been reported in connection with this recall, but it’s important not to consume these products, even if they appear fine.
