>>       'Dairy farm' means any premises where any cow, goat, sheep, water
>>buffalo, or other mammal (except humans) are maintained and milked for the
>>purpose of providing milk for manufacturing into dairy products as defined
>>herein and intended for human consumption.
>>
>>Notice they do not say  "intended to SELL for human consumption," but merely
>>"for human consumption."

The way I would read something worded this way (be glad I'm not a 
lawyer/legislator in Virginia) is that it would be illegal to make butter 
or cheese for my own use from animals I owned, not even bringing selling 
into the picture.
