Thanks! Do you have an actual tutorial as well, regarding the details as far as licenses and requirements like cottage food laws, permits, certifications…? I’m thinking it can’t be that easy that just anyone can set up a Stand and start selling produce! But if it IS that easy, I’m ALL IN!! Thanks again ❤
@@JaneThatcher89 It is that easy in some places. I don’t need a license here to sell under cottage laws. But you would have to check your county laws about cottage selling specifically.
I also want to start a front yard stand with what we grow in the garden. I was thinking of only having it open part time and being out there with 11am-1pm and 4pm-6pm. I currently have a firewood pallet and I’m experiencing some theft. That’s why I’m planning part time only to see how it goes. Very nice looking stand. I would stop at it.
The little baskets that held the tomatoes? Here’s a link to them: amzn.to/3jRInWa I ask people to leave them and provide paper and plastic bags from my pantry.
I watch them really closely. The fleshy part of the rind will turn a different color when they are ripe and you pretty much have to pick them right then because they get overly ripe really fast.
Looks great! Do you stay with the stand all day? I would like to try my own stand unattended and have the customers pay with the honor system. There a places where this works. Nice to know you can still trust your neighbors
I do not. Now that we have our bigger one I don't stay out there either. It's right next to our house and I can see it out my office window. We really rely on the honor system. Next year when I have some of my pottery out there and soap we will probably add a camera.
It depends on where you live. Some townships/cities require a license. My land is zoned as agriculture so our stand is considered part of the Cottage Industry in Michigan, which dictates what we can sell and what we can't sell. For instance, I can sell my pickle cucumbers, but I can't pickle them myself and sell the jar of pickled pickles. I can sell home baked breads, but I can't sell infused olive oil. I would say 1. Check with the township/city rules (online usually) 2. Check your states' Cottage Industry rules.

Hi..very nice stand.. I'm thinking of building a little roadside stand as well....Question- where do you get your packaging baskets. They are nice.
The little baskets that held the tomatoes? Here’s a link to them: amzn.to/3jRInWa

how do you grow cantaloupe? Tried last summer, they got over ripe. How do you guys know when they are just right for picking?
I watch them really closely. The fleshy part of the rind will turn a different color when they are ripe and you pretty much have to pick them right then because they get overly ripe really fast.
Are you selling your flowers in jars & how much?
Looks great!

Do I need a license for this? This is a cute idea for my neighborhood
