| Hello,
I am a TN gardener that grows native plants such as teaberry, sassafras, & huckleberry, and I am looking to sell some of these plants online to customers who are potentially from different states. How should I go about understanding and adhering to each state's laws concerning what plants they let in and which ones they don't? Are there any shortcuts, or do I need to precisely examine each state's plant laws (which I don't think I have the time or the know-how to do)? Thank you for your help, Sterling |

| How about contacting the USDA as a first step? |
|
| APHIS is the division of the USDA responsible for the interstate movement of plants. They probably have guidelines on their website. A phytosanitary permit from them might be required. |

| Thanks for your advice! I'll look into that more. |
