Broken Arrow, OK Home Business: Cottage Food Operations (2026)

Oklahoma has one of the most permissive cottage food laws in the US. The Home Bakery Act (Title 63 §1-1118) originally covered baked goods, jams, jellies, candies, and other non-potentially-hazardous foods. The 2021 Home Food Freedom Act (HB 1826, codified at Title 63 §1-1118.2) dramatically expanded the law: producers can sell most homemade foods — including some potentially hazardous foods like refrigerated items (with buyer disclosure) — directly to informed end consumers. No revenue cap. No commercial kitchen required. No state licensing or inspection needed for qualifying operations. Required labeling (§1-1118.2.D): 'This product is home-produced and processed and the production area has not been inspected by the Oklahoma State Department of Health'; product name; producer name and address; ingredients (with allergens per FALCPA); net weight; and date of manufacture. Sales channels: farmers markets, home/on-farm, online with in-state delivery, and some direct retail. Meat, seafood, and most dairy still require OSDH or USDA inspection. Tulsa County and City of Tulsa do not add restrictions — operations run under state law. Home-business zoning (Tulsa County Title 42 §90.080) still applies for customer traffic and signage. Federal sales (interstate) require FDA compliance; Oklahoma cottage law is for in-state sales only.
