Maker guidelines.

What we list, what we ask of makers, and how listings are reviewed.

Who can be listed

  • Florida makers of spice blends, rubs, seasonings, seasoning salts, dried herbs and dry tea blends.
  • Florida cottage food operations and licensed food businesses.
  • You sell under your own business name, through your own shop, markets or storefront.

What your listing includes

A free profile with your story, products, categories, markets and pickup options, and links to your own shop, Etsy and Instagram. Buyers order directly from you.

What we ask of you

  • Keep your details accurate and tell us when they change, or if you stop selling.
  • Only send photos you took or have permission to use.
  • Follow Florida's labeling rules for what you sell; the spice guide and tea guide cover the basics.
  • Describe flavor and use, not health benefits. Claims that a product cures, treats or prevents anything aren't allowed on Spiceground.
  • Never share a home address on your listing; list markets and pickup spots instead.

What we don't list

  • Products that need refrigeration, such as fresh pastes and sauces, unless they're made in a licensed kitchen.
  • Foods containing hemp, CBD or THC.
  • Anything you aren't permitted to sell.

Listings we add ourselves

We sometimes list a business using information from its own public website, marked as not yet claimed. We only use basic facts and links, write descriptions in our own words, and never copy photos. Any business can claim, update or remove its listing through the contact form, and we remove listings on request.

Reviews and removals

We review every listing before it goes live and send makers a preview. We may decline or remove a listing that doesn't follow these guidelines.

These guidelines aren't legal advice. Check the current rules with the Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services (FDACS) before you sell.
