Bill overview
This bill exempts certain food processors, particularly maple syrup and honey producers, from needing a full food license in Michigan. It expands existing exemptions to include direct sales of fresh produce, certain nonprofit cooperatives, and retail outlets selling prepackaged honey and maple syrup. Specifically, small-scale producers with gross sales under $15,000 are exempt, provided they label their products similarly to cottage food products. The bill also clarifies licensing requirements for mobile food establishments and temporary events.
