Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

What is a New York farm license?

Farm licenses are for producers who use New York grown ingredients. In exchange they carry privileges such as on site tasting rooms, retail sales to go, and sales at farmers markets that standard manufacturer licenses do not.

Which class is right for my production?

It depends on what you make, your volume, and your sourcing. We review your plans and confirm whether a farm, micro, or standard license fits best, then file it.

Can I run a tasting room?

Most farm and craft licenses allow an on site tasting room and retail sales, subject to the rules for your class. We make sure your application includes the privileges you want.

Do I also need a Federal permit?

Yes. Producers need a Federal Basic Permit from the TTB and label approvals in addition to the New York license. We coordinate both so your timeline stays on track.
