What this bill does

Plain-language analysis by the nonpartisan Legislative Reference Bureau

Current law requires food processing plant licenses from the Department of

Agriculture, Trade and Consumer Protection (DATCP) for certain facilities at which

food is manufactured or prepared for sale through processes such as baking, canning,

freezing, and bottling, with specified exemptions.

This bill provides an exemption from the requirement to obtain a food

processing plant license for the face-to-face sale of nonhazardous homemade baked

goods to consumers by a person who receives less than $10,000 per year from the sale

of the food, registers with DATCP, and complies with requirements concerning

labeling and signage. A baked good is nonhazardous if it is acidic or has a low amount

of moisture and will not support the growth of dangerous organisms.

Current law provides an exemption from the requirement to obtain a food

processing plant license for the sale of food products, such as pickles, that are

prepared and canned by a person at home if certain requirements are met. Under

current law, the sales of the canned products must take place at a community or

social event or a farmer's market. This bill replaces that requirement with a

requirement that the sales be face-to-face sales to consumers. Under current law,

the exemption only applies if the person receives less than $5,000 per year from the

sale of the canned products. Under this bill, the exemption applies if the person

receives less than $10,000 per year from the sales.
