Has anyone become legal from their home in Tennessee?I receive information from the TN dept of agriculture.This seemed like a lot,just to sell legally.I basically do this as a hobby while my children are small.I would consider it as a side job,if it wasn't too much involved.We have a new home and it appeared that I would even have to repaint and tile in light colors.Can someone help? We just moved to this rural area.

I do cakes and catering, while I am a full time student. I contacted the local health department and was sent on to my state inspectors office. I was told that as long as I was working by word of mouth and had no full time employees I didn't have to be inspected. Where are you located?

They just recently changed the requirements for running a legal home bakery in TN. I wrote about it here...bottom of the page

Oh, could you please fill me in then? Where do I contact about this? Is there somewhere else I could read up on this? Thanks Katie

I'd start at the TN Dept of Agriculture since they're the regulatory authority.
