A Maine farmer-owned organic milk company is going to keep processing milk after all.
David Bright, of Maine's Own Organic Milk, or MOOMilk, says a number of individuals and foundations have provided enough money to enable the company to sell its product to two Maine food banks.
Augusta-based MOOMilk had said it would suspend processing on Sunday because it was out of money.
Bright said the company didn't have enough cash on hand to keep processing milk, but it does now.
MOOMilk was formed last year after Hood didn't renew its contract for organic milk with 10 Maine farms.
It buys milk from six Maine farms. Its organic milk is distributed to 150 stores in Maine and New Hampshire.-AP
