An ordinance allowing Denver residents in most areas to sell homegrown produce and some homemade food items won approval Monday from the City Council.

The council approved the measure 9-1 after hearing public comment Monday and June 16. Councilwoman Jeanne Faatz, citing some neighborhood opposition in southwest Denver, voted no.

The “cottage foods” addition to Denver’s zoning code allows residents to sell many items from their homes, including uncut fruits and vegetables, whole eggs, and home-prepared food products such as jellies, jams, honey, teas, herbs, spices and some baked goods.

Sales will be allowed from 8 a.m. to dusk, starting Friday.

The 2012 Colorado Cottage Foods Act allows for the in-home sales if cities adopt rules. Arvada and Wheat Ridge also have passed ordinances taking advantage of the law.
