# Homewaala food-label template (starting point)

This is a starting point you're welcome to use for your own product labels --
not a Homewaala-required format, and not a substitute for checking your
county environmental health department's own labeling requirements under
the California Cottage Food program.

vary by county and this template does not replace that check.
