Creating a Food Business on the Homestead.

The article focuses on creating a food business from home which is now possible by new laws on the books in 42 states in the U.S. which allow specific food businesses to be launched from home kitchens. Topics include the state's legislation outlining the "non-hazardous" food items one can produce under cottage food law, generally grouped as high-acid canned food products, and each cottage food law dictating where one can sell one's product directly to the public.
