I live in Indiana and over the winter we increased our flock specifically so we could do business at the local farmers market and I can't find how to apply for a license or how much they cost (that is up to date). I looked up the Indiana egg board but they just had pages upon pages of 2009 egg production commercial vs small farms. In those pages it said if you sell more than 5 cartons of eggs a week a $25 annual fee is what you needed to pay to get a license.
Any thoughts as to where to look/who to talk to in order to get my license? Market season will be here before you know it!
Thanks!
IC 16-42-11-8 If you sell only your eggs from your property you would be exempt.
IC 16-42-11-9.5 If you sell at a Farmer's market then you "may be required" to have a permit and follow packaging guidelines.
You can find the law in the this link: http://www.in.gov/legislative/ic/code/title16/ar42/ch11.html
Information on how to contact the Indiana Egg Board can be found at the top of this link: http://www.ansc.purdue.edu/ISEB/Guidelines for labeling eggs.pdf
