Ann L'Italien for Myself Gilmanton Iron Works, NH I support this bill as I would like to encourage flexibility for those who grow and prepare local produce and products. | Gilmanton Iron Works, NH | Support | 119 | Feb 11, 2025 | |
Megan Ferentino for Myself South Hampton There should be one established place on a homestead that is inspected yearly to allow homesteads to make food. Also, there's no point on a bill if no one is enforcing this bill | South Hampton | Oppose | 178 | Feb 11, 2025 | |

Virginia Sapiro for Myself Gilmanton I am both a market gardener and President of Gilmanton's Own, Inc., a 501(c)3 organization with a mission of supporting local agriculture and farmers. It is important to support more flexibility in homestead food production. This would help support food resilience in New Hampshire by allowing more farmers to create and sell value-added products made from what they grow. Thank you. | Gilmanton | Support | 384 | Feb 11, 2025 | |
Brittany Oakes for Myself Laconia Hello, My name is Brittany Oakes and I am a home baker who loves serving my community. I believe #307 is an appropriate bill to pass considering the world we live in. The QR code is not only widely used by many free staters, but also would create ease for the business owner. The business owner would also be able to gain more exposure with having a QR code bringing the consumer directly to their site. | Laconia | Support | 406 | Feb 11, 2025 | |

Diane Hashem for Myself Thornton I support HB 307 because it increases consumer freedom by allowing consumers to have greater access to cottage food goods in New Hampshire and would keep more of the food dollar in local communities with the increase in locally-produced foods consumers can obtain. | Thornton | Support | 264 | Feb 11, 2025 | |
James Gardner for Myself Keene Dear Committee, I urge you to SUPPORT HB307. This bill will allow fellow Granite Staters more freedom on how they prepare their homestead products.
