Illinois Cottage Food Laws

Hi!

I am new to site and thought I would ask if anyone is from Illinois, and working as a cottage baker? I am running into confusion. The cottage law says only farmers' markets up to $36,000, but my county passed a cupcake law (home baked goods ordinance) allowing just $1,000 a month from home.

I am wondering if anyone is familiar with Kendall County in regards to this? When I called, one person told me I cannot do both the farmers' market and home baking; then the city said they did not think I could bake from home at all. Health department said there is definite confusion.

Anyone familiar with Illinois and can give me guidance would be greatly appreciated!

Have a SWEET day!

Wendy
