@suzanneottawa I merged your post with the main thread.

How did you acquire the produce ?

I'm also having this issue. Mods on, off, repaired it, made a new household, everything. If the item was "given" to me I can't sell it (seed packets are bought but when you open they're basically gifted) but anything I grow myself sells just fine.

 

Edit: this also includes any of the produce I get from asking Patchy for seeds. When I placed one on the ground it said it doesn't belong to the sim.

I have no idea when this started, I have not had my sim do this in a long time. Happens with humans and vampires. Tested at sim homes and public spaces in one base game town and 2 dlc towns. The garlands, wreaths and braid can be sold if dragged onto a wall in the sim's house thru build mode. Can also be sold from family inventory.

 

Removed mods, delelted cahce, have updated and reparied game, stared blankly at my wall for good measure. Pic attached.

 

Edit: Didn't notice this before - my sim does not own this item. I dragged it from her inventory, put it on the wall, click on it and, well it seems as if she stole it from herself. Anther pic attached.

Experiencing the same issue since installing Cottage Living + Update. I have zero mods, though have used some cheats (ignore gameplay unlocks entitlement, added traits/skills, motherlode). Anyway, I cannot sell excess seeds/produce from my inventory. I have not yet completed growing anything since this update/install to see if that produce can then be sold.

In case it helps anyone, I’ve had success selling using the multi select button in my inventory. Personally it seems like I’m only seeing this from non-planted extra herbs from seed packets, I was able to sell with multi select. I tested with a couple and could also sell if I dragged them onto the ground and then had my Sims spouse sell them.

@R0CKFLAGandEAGLE I’m having the same issue. I can put them in the fridge or the flower arranging table but I cannot sell them, gift them or throw them away.

I am having the same exact issue. 
However, it is only the produce from seed packets (not from harvesting or being gifted) that will not sell.
This is a massive chore because if you buy seed packets, the only way to get rid of the piles and piles of produce from your inventory is to place them all individually on the ground and delete it with the sledgehammer tool in build/buy mode. But you may have hundreds of individual produce items at that point. Not a good option, but the only thing I've found so far to work around this bug.

I have same problem. No mods in my game. Must say I never had this problem and if I am not wrong, this issue was solved once with an update. So I guess now another update needed

I am experiencing the same issue, I believe it started with the emergency patch 1.77.146.1030. Base game only, no mods/cc-never used. 

 

Produce or flowers obtained from seed packets can't be sold via the inventory. Produce or flowers obtained via harvesting CAN be sold.

I am not certain if the quality makes a difference, but will update once one of the normal plants has something to harvest. At this point, I can sell harvested items from the inventory, but all of them in my save are evolved beyond normal. I did plant a normal seed, so once it produces something I'll test to see if there's a difference.

 

I purchased several uncommon seed packets via the planter box and through build/buy. None of the produce/flowers received from the packets can be sold from the inventory when trying to drag and drop them on the sell bar. They can be dragged to the ground or planter box and planted. I've tried dragging them from the ground to another sim's inventory and they are still unable to be sold.

 

Two workarounds: enable multi-select in the sims inventory and the items can be deleted, or place on the ground and sell in build/buy mode.
