HB307 is a bill that aims to clarify and expand the rules around food production areas for homestead food. This means it is designed to make it easier for people to grow their own food on their property. The bill has been signed into law by the Governor and became effective as of May 30, 2025.

This law will mainly affect homeowners and anyone interested in growing their own food. By making it easier to grow food on their property, it could help people save money on groceries and increase local food production. The bill includes provisions that allow for larger gardens, the use of more diverse crops, and some exemptions from certain local zoning laws.

HB307 was introduced in January 2025, passed through several committees and stages in both the House and Senate, and was finally signed into law in May 2025. Key steps include committee reports, amendments, and voice votes in both chambers before being enrolled and signed by the Governor.
