Products must be delivered directly to the consumer in person — shipping through courier services is also permitted in Maryland.

You can:

  • Accept orders through social media, email, text, or a website
  • Collect payment online through Venmo, PayPal, or a storefront
  • Deliver directly to the customer's home or a public meeting spot
