Massachusetts H1882 aims to allow farmers to offer free samples of their homemade products at farmers' markets without liability.
Massachusetts H1882 seeks to amend existing law to protect farmers from liability when they offer free samples of their homemade or homegrown products at public farmers' markets and farm stands. This bill exempts such sample offerings from sanitary health code requirements, such as sinks and heating apparatus. The intent is to encourage more interaction and sales at these markets by reducing the burden on farmers.
