A group of Michigan kids took the old adage “when life gives you lemons, make lemonade” to heart as they fought back against a local law requiring them to obtain a costly permit to run a lemonade stand.
Three young brothers in Rogers City, Michigan, had sold lemonade at their local farmers market for years, but were told last summer they were required to get a temporary permit from the local health department that cost $57 every two weeks, The Washington Post reported. That would add up to about $400 if they ran the stand from June through September.
