Myra Owns a Peach Farm

Question 22

Multiple Choice

Myra owns a peach farm. When the peaches are harvested she makes peach jam and sells them at her roadside stand to those who drive by. Recently she posted on Facebook about her peach jam and she noticed her sales increasing. Can the federal government regulate her farm according under the Commerce Clause?


A) No because since she grows her own peaches, makes her peach jam and sells her peach jam all within one state, it is not interstate commerce as she is not directly selling jam across state line.
B) No because the Commerce Clause specifically excludes agricultural businesses.
C) Yes if the court determines that her actions have a substantial economic effect on interstate commerce can be regulated.
D) Yes because once someone posts on social media it automatically makes it interstate commerce.
