I have had the idea of selling my specialty berrie jams and jellies for a while now, what are the legal requirements?
These would be specialties, not widely available.
Thank you eberyone! |

Betty,
Have you ever thought about taking it to a farmers market?
I sold my soap, eggs ,honey and jelly and jams at one in Shreveport, LA. I did very well and loved the job and the friends that I made. Your proudcts sound wonderful!

Thank you! That reply clears up allot of questions for me, I will check into getting my own kitchen licensed and the ins and outs of doing such. I am also very interested in making paper out of plant fibers, I`ll let you know how it goes! |

In most states, you have to prepare any food products you intend to sell to general public in an inspected, licensed kitchen. This can include a church, school, restaurant, etc. If you're affiliated with any of them, arranging time to use the space should be no problem. Keep in mind you will likely also need to report any income generated on your taxes. You can check out both of these requirement on your state's government websites.
