I am seeking kitchen space as I cannot create a domestic kitchen in my home. I live in Memphis, TN and would like to start selling my jams/chutney online.
Another question:
Does anyone know of a loophole to get around the need for a licensed kitchen by using the Cottage Food Laws?Thanks,
BlakeAre you not able to create a domestic kitchen because you have pets, I assume?
I’d recommend that you start by selling your jams and chutneys locally with the basic cottage food law, before trying to sell online.
If you want to sell online, I don’t know of any loophole that would prevent you from needing to get a commercial kitchen and properly licensed. Here is some info about finding a commercial kitchen: http://forrager.com/faq/#commercial-kitchen
Ashley ColpaartHey everyone! Just wanted to let y’all know about a resource called The Kitchen Door that might be helpful if you are looking for a commercial kitchen to rent in your area. I know it’s difficult to find a space that makes it easy to stay compliant and frankly just cook. Hope it’s helpful!
