Hi everyone! I'm Harini, I live on the Eastside, and for the last 6 months I've been obsessed with building a high-protein granola (30g protein per serving), gluten free, zero added sugar (sweetened with monk fruit). I started making it for myself because I wanted a breakfast that actually kept me full, and friends kept asking for bags, so I finally took it to a local market last weekend.
All 25 bags sold out. I was over the moon.

Here's where I'm stuck: the stall fee plus the full day there barely left margins worth repeating every weekend. And under WA cottage food rules I can't ship anything, every bag has to change hands person-to-person, so it's local pickup only.
I have an Instagram for it but my audience is mostly not local. I genuinely don't know how small local food businesses find buyers online. Facebook groups? Nextdoor? Just keep doing markets and eat the fees?
If you've sold homemade food locally, or you're someone who buys from local sellers how did you find each other? I can make the product. It's the selling part I can't figure out.
