A Senate bill allowing kids to operate a “temporary stand,” such as a lemonade stand, was signed into law by Governor Tony Evers on Monday.
Wisconsin Act 60 will allow temporary stands to operate on private property without a license from the Department of Agriculture, Trade, and Consumer Protection and protects them from rules set by municipalities which would ban them or require a license, permit, or fee.
The bill limits the amount of annual sales to $2,000 of lemonade a year for minors. Kids cannot sell foods that require temperature control and could potentially cause food poisoning.
