CASPER, Wyo. Starting July 1, people in Wyoming will have the ability to sell eggs from chickens that they raise at home. The sale of other homemade food and drink products will also see some restrictions relaxed under the updated Wyoming Food Freedom Act.
Wyoming Governor Mark Gordon has signed House Bill 118 into law which will allow for the changes to take effect on July 1, 2021.
The bill was initially drafted specifically to allowing local producers to sell eggs under Wyoming Food Freedom Act but the House of Representatives amended the legislation on first reading to further relax regulations on the sale of homemade food and drink products in addition to allowing the sale of home-raised eggs.

CASPER, Wyo. Wyoming House District 05 Rep. Shelly Duncan said during Wednesday’s floor session that House Bill 13 aims to some of Wyoming’s liquor laws in a manner that is “business friendly.”
The proposed legislation would clarify that businesses with a retail liquor licence, microbrewery permit, winery permit, winery satellite permit or a manufacturer licencee with a satellite location are able to “deliver or contract to have delivered alcoholic liquors and malt beverages to customers.”
Duncan said that the Wyoming attorney general has delivered an opinion that delivery of alcohol products by full retail liquor licenses holders is already legal in the state.
