Amend Virginia's Cottage Food Laws for Online Sales and Wholesale


Amend Virginia's Cottage Food Laws for Online Sales and Wholesale
The Issue
Dear friend,
As the founder of a woman-owned cottage bakery in Virginia, I am seeking your support to improve legislation in the Commonwealth that affects both cottage bakers and you, the families we serve.
Current laws prevent cottage bakeries from offering online purchasing and wholesale offerings to local shops, which limits growth, customer access, and community connections.
Updating these laws to allow for this commerce will help small businesses thrive, bolster the local economy, create real community partnerships, and provide greater choice and convenience for our customers.
It will only take a moment, could you please sign this petition to update Virginia’s cottage food laws, so that we may serve you and your families the goodness you deserve?
Thanks so very much.
