Want To Operate A Successful Cottage Food Business?

November 4, 2014

Santa Rosa County Extension will host a “Operating a Successful Cottage Food Business” program for those that wish to sell food made in their homes.

The program will cover pricing, taxes and marketing. It will also include a time for questions and answers with the Extension Service Small Farms and FCS Staff. Farms or individuals interested or currently marketing processed foods are encouraged to attend.

Cottage foods by definition are foods made in the home for resale that do not require refrigeration. These include but are not limited to jams, jellies, preserves, honey, cakes and pies.

Two identical programs will be held — November 7 from 10 a.m. until noon and November 20 from 6-8 p.m. at the Santa Rosa County Extension Service at 6263 Dogwood Drive in Milton. The cost is $10.

For more information or to register, call Extension Family and Consumer Sciences Agent Ginny Hinton at (850) 623-3868 or email ginnyh@santarosa.fl.gov.
