TX mushroom sales laws
    #21725002 - 05/26/15 02:05 PM (8 years, 8 months ago)

I contacted Texas dept of agriculture about selling homwegrown mushrooms and this was the response,

As long as you are selling your own produce and do not cut or process the mushrooms in any form you can sell them at a farmers market without a permit from the Texas Department of Agriculture. If you process them, you will need a permit from the local health department.

When selling to restaurants the same applies. You will need to see what the restaurant requires. Some restaurants may require Good Agriculture Practices (GAP) certification before purchasing them, while others may not.

Keep in mind that processing even includes trimming the stem butts free of substrate and even dehydrating. So, basically, just pick em and sell em.

You are allowed one cut to trim th butts.  Plus, nobody gives a hoot since they are a low risk food anyhow.  As far as drying them and making tincture no one gives a shit at my market.  Now selling a lot or in stores is totally different.  Then you're talking about GAP and HCAAP and all that.

Hi-

In my state if you slice the mushrooms or dry the mushrooms that is now a processed food and you need to follow the rules.  If you do not you are just waiting for a boat load of trouble.

These laws can be confusing and I'm not a lawyer.  I paid a service to help me set up my business in Oregon and I'm still not sure I'm 100% cool.  At least I can pay taxes on my sales, lol, that was easy to understand.
