Lisa Kivirist of Browntown, WI shares an update on the past, present, and future of the cottage food and food freedom movements, and how she's helping support them with many different resourcesGet full show notes and transcript here: https://forrager.com/podcast/81

 It only seems natural that after you perfect a homemade delicacy for your family and friends, the next step is to start selling it. Until recently this was financially impossible in many states due to regulations that meant you would have to invest big bucks in infrastructure to start a business. However, now that all 50 states have cottage food laws, you can start selling food directly from your home kitchen.  But before you start baking and selling, be sure to listen to this episode with Lisa Kivirist, co-author of Homemade for Sale: How to Set Up and Market a Food Business from Your Home Kitchen. There are still some things you need to do to stay legal, but it is now so much easier than it was before the cottage food laws were passed. In this episode we are talking about exactly what you can and cannot sell from your kitchen, as well as where you can sell your products. We talk about the difference between hazardous and non-hazardous foods, and we even get into what needs to be included on your product labels. Not sure how to price your products? We talk about that too. Full show notes here --  https://thriftyhomesteader.com/how-to-start-food-business-from-home/To see the most recent episodes, visit Sustainability Book Chat Podcast.

Lisa Kivirist Though this series on regenerative farming has covered a ton of different farming models, land management techniques, food production methods and design methods, one of the glaring absences in the perspectives I've included has been that of women, and I'm well aware of it. I did reach out to a lot of women farmers in an attempt to set up interviews, but many of them either didn't want to be interviewed or were simply too busy to be able to schedule a call. I can imagine that with all of the nonsense and instability around the pandemic it must be really challenging for all farmers in the last 6 months. I was however finally able to get a hold of Lisa Kivirist, one of my favorite authors of homesteading skills and small scale farming. She's the author of the farmstead chef, rural renaissance, ecopreneuring, homemade for sale, and the book that will be the center of our interview today “soil sisters: a toolkit for women farmers” She's also the host of the podcast: “In her boots” which focuses on interviews with and about modern women farmers, which I've been a fan of for over a year now and highly recommend to anyone interested in farm stories and general advice in the USA. In her extensive work helping to build support for women in farming and to create a community network of their peers that they can rely on, Lisa has helped to highlight the stories and experiences around the immeasurable contributions from women in agriculture and set stronger foundations for their continued success into the future.  In this interview Lisa helps me to understand the complex history of women farmers in the US and the obstacles that they've had to overcome in the past as well as those that are still in their way. She also explains the unique talents and perspective that they bring to this fast changing sector along with the growing support network that they're building together.  I've been a big fan of Lisa's books for a while and her podcast is a really valuable resource too, but this book Soil Sisters really opened my eyes to the blind spots that I've had and that the farming industry at large has had to the essential role that women have played in advancing and strengthening farming through some of America's toughest times.  Resources: https://homemadeforsale.wixsite.com/freshbaked http://innserendipity.com/ http://innserendipity.com/news/news.html https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lisa_Kivirist

Recently, Lisa has also redoubled her efforts around cottage food activism in Wisconsin. Fighting for people to be able to sell low-risk foods, like cookies for instance, that they make in their own kitchens is really common sense to Lisa. "what we're talking about is actually the 'oldest' newest thing," she says, reminding us that before commercial kitchens were even a concept people sold goods they'd cooked in their home kitchens almost exclusively.

In this Deep Roots Radio interview, Lisa Kivirist describes the multi-year battle to legalize the sale of home-baked goods in the state Wisconsin. The Badger state has been one of only two in the entire country that has not permitted the sale of home-baked muffins, cookies and breads. Lisa is one of three women farmers […]
