Public Law 163

Mar 12, 2026

Summary

The law creates a new category for "homestead vendors" and "small farms" that sell food or meat directly to consumers and frees them from state and local health‑code requirements, except for federal rules. It still requires clear on‑site or package labeling, basic refrigeration and handling standards, and limits shipping to in‑state deliveries by certified handlers. The change aims to lower regulatory barriers for local producers while preserving basic consumer‑protective safeguards.
