FAQ

Can I legally sell (fill in the blank… raw milk, unwashed eggs, live animals etc.)?

As the seller, you are responsible for ensuring that your products meet all applicable laws and regulations for production, sale, and distribution. It’s essential to do your homework—check with resources like the USDA, your local agricultural extension office, or your state Department of Agriculture to verify the legal requirements for your specific product. If you need assistance in finding your specific area / state, we will try to assist you because staying informed is your best strategy for success!
