Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
In this episode, we walk through the basics of starting a cottage food business in a way that feels doable and not overwhelming. Even if you are making charcuterie... you too can easily sell other things from home. We talk about what we can legally sell, what rules we need to pay attention to, and the simple steps we can take to set things up the right way from the start.
We also share real-world tips from our own experience—like choosing the right products, keeping our kitchen organized, preparing for markets or events, and making sure we stay compliant with local laws. Our goal is to make cottage food business ownership feel clear, encouraging, and totally possible for all of us.
If we’ve been dreaming about selling homemade food but aren’t sure where to begin, this episode gives us a friendly, easy-to-follow starting point.
