3. No shipping — and why
Jacara's baked goods are made under Georgia's Cottage Food Rules, which allow direct-to-consumer sales only — no wholesale, no resale, and no distribution through third parties (Ga. Comp. R. & Regs. r. 40-7-19-.05). That's why there is no mail-order shipping and no out-of-state fulfillment: it keeps every sale inside the rules her kitchen operates under. Full details in the Cottage Food Disclosures.
