Bryan County is a fast-growing county near Savannah; local zoning may be more developed than typical rural counties.
- Home kitchen:
- Must be produced in operator's primary domestic residence home kitchen only. Secondary homes, vacation homes, or motor homes do not qualify. Only non-potentially hazardous foods permitted.
