My business cunundrum

I have 31/2 acres...some wooded and I'm thinking of moving my tent barn further back in the woods.

I have two thoughts here, take them with a grain of salt, but my first thought is; do you live in the city/town or out in the county? Kinda confused by the 3 1/2 acres being in town, but if your in town go to the town board and get a "special exception" for a home based business(probably have to present your operation to the town council). Take pictures of the clean operation you have now to present to them. #2 If you live outside of the town/city limits then there is nothing they can do as long as you don't put up a big sign advertising your "business". The only sign I have is a small realtor sized sign advertising that I buy batteries; no name just what I want and the price. It's small and not obnoxious.
PS; If you build your "business" up enough you would not have to do any neighborly advertising. Hit the thrift stores for leftovers, yard sales, small factories, then you'll have more work than you can keep up with and don't have to worry about shaking up the neighbors. Look at my/our business card; Business name, just first names, a phone # and a town name but no address. Right now it;s all Phil and I can do to keep up, and I have a large list of places to talk to yet, but like I said before; you have to learn to walk before you can run.
