If you have a great recipe that takes off, you can see about leasing a kitchen. (Here in FL if you go over $5K annually you are no longer a hobbyist.)

Since you love gardening can you sell plants where you live? You may need a license. Some states are picky but FL has fairly lax rules and cheap fees as long as you aren't propagating citrus. Selling spare veggies or fruit? They want to know but registering is free or was when I last checked.

You can fly under the radar or not--your choice.
