Hey!

I'm thinking about officially starting a home bakery business in TN...I know it's legal in this state (thank the Lord!), but haven't been able to find any info on it....I've been all over the internet looking.

Anyone have any wisdom on this issue?

Thank you so much!!!

my son is opening a home bakery in tn....every county has different rules, in his he is having to rehab the garage with triple bay sink and the whole deal....call the health dept and make an appointment for the dude to copme out and see what you're working with.

If you haven't already found this info, here is a link to the TN Dept of Ag website, you want to look under the agency services "Domestic Kitchen Rules." That will tell you what all of the requirements are. Contact the HD and they will send you the information, too. It is relatively easy, but that required food safety course only comes around a few times a year.
Hope this helps, and good luck!
