Farmers market manager Kirsten Ameling reminds customers that the market accepts SNAP, SFMNP, WIC, Produce Perks and credit cards. The market bank program allows shoppers from all economic backgrounds to shop. "Whether a customer has an EBT card or did not bring cash, they will still be able to purchase goods from the vendors," she said. The farmers market offers a matching program, "Produce Perks," which offers up to a $25 match for fruits and vegetables purchased with an EBT card. Produce Perk tokens can be used to purchase fruits and vegetables, fresh herbs and plants that produce foods. SNAP tokens can be used to purchase fruits and vegetables, herbs, food-producing plants, honey, maple, meats, eggs, milk, jam, jelly, relish and baked goods. WIC vouchers can be used to purchase fruits and vegetables, and herbs. Senior Farmers Market Nutrition Program vouchers can be used to purchase fruits and vegetables, herbs and honey. Credit card tokens can be used to purchase anything from the farmers market. "We are glad to be able to offer a program that allows everyone to have access to fresh fruits and vegetables and other goods," Ameling said.
