I really don’t know. I’d recommend you contact the TN Department of Revenue.
Aimee, I’m not entirely sure. This seems to fall into a gray area, because it’s neither an indirect sale nor a direct sale, really. My guess, which could be wrong, is that this would not be allowed because you are not selling to the end consumer. I’d recommend you call the state ag dept for official clarification.
You don’t need it in the lease agreement (unless your landlord requires that), but it’s really a moot point since you can’t sell homemade vegan burgers anyway.
I really don’t know. This is a very county-specific determination. Sometimes it’s as simple as a written note signed by your landlord. Start by asking the ag dept about it.
With the exception of some types of baked goods, anything that requires refrigeration cannot be made in a home kitchen and sold. Therefore, almost all types of vegan burgers would not be allowed. http://forrager.com/faq/#commercial
You need your landlord’s permission before you can run a business from their property.
If you only plan on selling them at farmers markets, then you might be able to do that with the cottage food law. Otherwise, I think the only way to do that is with a commercial license. http://forrager.com/faq/#commercial
In rereading this post, I’m now not so sure if you could buy sandwiches from a store and then resell them. The most important thing, when dealing with refrigerated items like this, is to call your health dept for more info.
The short answer is, most likely, yes. You would not be using Virginia’s cottage food law. Here is the longer answer: http://forrager.com/faq/#nonprofit
Let me know if you need more info.Generally, if a state allows sweet breads, like zucchini or banana bread, then there are a lot of things you can bake into your bread or cake. Most fruit or vegetables can be baked in, and most store-bought candies could definitely be added.
Keep in mind, though, that you should talk to your health/ag dept about whether or not they’ll allow a certain item. The actual determination gets down to specific proportion requirements needing to be met… for instance, pumpkin bread is allowed but pumpkin pie definitely isn’t.
Sherry, it looks like you’re from Texas and they do allow sweet breads, so all of the above would apply to you.
From what I’ve heard, Miami doesn’t allow any types of homemade food to be sold. Miami-Dade County has banned the cottage food law. http://forrager.com/faq/#commercial
