📣 Calling All TX Cottage Food Producers!
If you haven't heard, the Texas Cottage Food Law (SB 541) was updated during the 2025 Texas legislative session and new regulations went into effect on September 1, 2025. There are some exciting changes to what cottage food producers can make, where they can sell, how much they can sell, and more!
We collaborated with Judith McGeary of Farm and Ranch Freedom Alliance (FARFA) to deliver two free online trainings for Texas farmers, ranchers, and local food producers who sell value-added products. The recorded session is now available as a self-paced online course on TXFED.org:
New Opportunities under the Texas Cottage Food Law

For only $20, you'll gain access to:
- A recorded presentation about 2025 Texas Cottage Food Law updates by Judith McGeary
- A summary of key takeaways
- Judith's answers to audience questions (Q&A)
- Linked resources and guidance on next steps
If you're confused about whether your products are covered by the Texas Cottage Food Law, what you need to do to stay in compliance, or you're considering developing value-added products as part of your farm business... enroll today!
The course fee supports the Texas Center for Local Food and Farm and Ranch Freedom Alliance in continuing to provide high quality training and technical assistance to Texas farmers, ranchers, and local food producers. We appreciate you sharing widely!
