The law in Pottawatomie County

The same as everywhere in Oklahoma: a kid’s lemonade stand needs no permit, no license and no inspection under the state’s food freedom law, 2 O.S. § 5-4.3. The law asks for one sign at the stand, and the stand kit prints it. Towns can have their own rules for selling in public places — your own driveway is private.
