Farm Commons will offer a webinar on Monday, March 17, 2014 at 6 p.m. CDT on the legal issues involved in adding value to farm products.
While starting a processing operation, improving packaging, and developing new products are all ways to make a farm more profitable, producers need to be aware of important legal issues. Employment law, tort liability, state and federal regulations and tax issues change when a farm begins to process a product. The webinar will discuss what activities cottage food laws do and do not protect.
Registration information for the webinar is available here.
