81 - Peddling and hawking farm produce.

  81.  Peddling  and  hawking  farm produce. The governing board of a
  municipal corporation shall not by ordinance or  otherwise  regulate  or
  prohibit  the  pursuit  or exercise of hawking and peddling farm produce
  except  hay  and  straw  within  the  limits  of  any   such   municipal
  corporation,  if  such farm produce is hawked or peddled by the producer
  thereof, or his servants or employees; nor shall the governing board  of
  any such municipal corporation pass an ordinance requiring such producer
  of  farm  produce to secure a license for peddling and hawking such farm
  produce within the  limits  of  such  municipal  corporation.    Nothing
  contained  herein  shall  affect  any  pending  action  or proceeding to
  recover penalties imposed for  violations  of  existing  ordinances  and
  regulations. Nothing in this section shall be construed to permit wagons
  from  which  farm produce is sold to stand in front of stores or private
  residences for a longer time than may be  necessary  for  the  sale  and
  delivery  of  produce  purchased  by  the  occupants  of  such stores or
  residences; nor to permit the  congregating  of  such  wagons  upon  any
  street  or  thoroughfare  not  set apart by the municipality as a public
  market for the sale of farm produce. This section  shall  not  apply  to
  villages, or to cities of the first class.
