Canal Winchester residents may operate a cottage food business under Ohio Revised Code 3715.024, which allows non-potentially hazardous foods to be produced in a home kitchen and sold directly to consumers up to 75,000 dollars in annual gross sales.
Allowed products include baked goods, jams, jellies, candies, dried herbs, and granolas. Products must be labeled with producer name, address, ingredients, and the statement that they are home-produced and not inspected by the Ohio Department of Agriculture. No separate state license is needed for cottage foods, but local zoning home-occupation rules still apply.
Contact your local code enforcement office for specific penalty information.
