Farm and homestead food sales.

Summary

The law lets Indiana’s health department adopt food‑safety rules, but those rules cannot be applied to homestead vendors or small‑farm vendors. These producers are exempt from most state health regulations, though they must still follow basic handling, refrigeration, labeling, and fire‑safety requirements and can be investigated for food‑borne illness complaints. The changes aim to ease small‑scale food sales while protecting public health.
