Have you thought about doing them as "gift baskets" ? For a "price" ? If you do baked goods for the farmers markets, then you have an approved kitchen or whatever your state requires..... I think that several on here would be more than willing to make a monetary "contribution".....

Actually, at this point, I only need an approved “commercial kitchen” to process foods with the main ingredient being dairy, such as cheese, cream cheese, kefir, milk, etc. at farmer’s market, it I make non-dairy baked goods, I don’t need a commercial kitchen. Although, I am only able to sell my baked goods locally.

To have a commercial kitchen, it requires a building separate from the house, with certain equipment as well as inspections for state certification.

One of my friends, near us, does home baking as well. She eventually wants to have what she calls a “store front”, where she can sell her baked goods. We have talked about having a commercial kitchen there. She could do conventional baked goods and I could do gluten free. Then, I could also process my goat milk into cheese and sell it. I don’t know if that will ever come to pass. But it’s a nice goal to work towards.

Ok. So I will place my order and @Baymule can bring them with her when she comes to get Ringo. She can hide them in her car. She can be a baked goods mule......get it? Or, I can do a road trip now that I have a decent car now.

Sounds like a good plan Rammy.

Which part? The part where I suggested she hide the goods in her car to avoid confiscation by the police if she gets pulled over and arrested for illegaly transporting yummy food? Or the road trip?

I like both options . . . but I think I like option 2 better, so we can have an East Texas Contingent PARTY!!!

BOTH????

They won't be crossing the California border so there won't be any confiscation.

 

[Rammy]

I dont know about that. I heard Hwy 10 is notorious for cops pulling people over and taking their stuff. Stay off that highway, @Devonviolet !
Of course, the road trip IS a good idea.

A little while ago, I was out helping DH with the animals. I got some cool photos and I wanted to share a few.
Deo - Is that a pretty boy, or what???

Here is Violet.

Here are some great shots of the twins. They are 8 months old.

That's Hope Rearing up and Faith on the log.

The they love playing on this log

Here they are just being cute

Our first two guineas are growing up. I'm not an expert. But I've read that a 2 note call means its a girl. If so, we have 2 girls. I tried to get pics of both, but the ones of the solid gray one were all blurry.

Those are our 9 Buff Orpington roos (scheduled for freezer camp) in their separate run. It drives them crazy that they can't get at the pullets.
That's one of our Whiting's True Blue egg layers, with the guineas.
