Homestead food makers can use commercial gear

The law defines a homestead food operation as a person who makes only non-hazardous homestead foods in the home kitchen of their primary New Hampshire residence.

Commercial kitchen equipment means heavy-duty tools and appliances used in professional kitchens. The change takes effect 60 days after the act’s passage.
