I would like to know where to begin about getting the legislation changed in FL regarding our guidelines. Any suggestions? There’s a large community of bakers who have a passion for baking but our limits for sales is on a hobby level.

Usually amendments start with someone like you. There is a huge number of home bakers in Florida so I think someone just needs to get the ball rolling. Here’s an article about amending a cottage food law: http://forrager.com/2015/05/lobbying-amending-cottage-food-law/

First of all, although I’m familiar with the law, I’m not really in a position where I could override anything that an official in your area says. Here are my thoughts:
1) Your farmers market manager is telling you that you can’t use the cottage food law. You need to make you food in a commercial kitchen and get a few other things. There’s no…[Read more]

More questions about Brevard County: It seems whatever office I go I get different answers…
Question #1: if I want to sell homemade baked goodies at farmers market venues under Cottage Law, do I still need a Food Permit? This is what a FM’s manager replied: “you must (1)have a food permit, (2) prepare the foods in a facility that meets certain…[Read more]
