Home kitchen laws by state
Can you sell food from home where you live? Pick your state for the plain-English breakdown: which laws apply, who runs the program, what's allowed, and how to start.
🏛️ State-run or county-led? Why it matters
In some states, one statewide agency sets the rules. In others, counties (or cities) opt in one by one — so home kitchens can be legal in one county and not the next. Every guide on this site carries a badge telling you which one you're dealing with:
County-led / opt-in — rules vary by county; check your county first State-run — one set of rules statewide Researching — verification in progress
