    I am trying to get some venues set up that I can sell at under the cottage law but every farmers market that I have contacted in my area are stating that they do not allow. I guess I am beginning to wonder what the purpose of the cottage law is if there are no venues to use. Would anyone know of a way to get my product out there to the public?

      Yeah it is frustrating, but farmers markets do have the right to turn away CFOs.

      There are still plenty of opportunities for you to sell your products. You can advertise online and then sell from your home or deliver. A lot of private events like craft fairs or foodie festivals will take you. You can also setup at a stand on the side of the road and sell there. There are many successful CFOs that don’t rely on farmers markets.
