There's no denying that if you qualify for food stamps, money is tight and spending it on pricey produce at the Farmer's Market doesn't make economic sense. The Midtown Farmer's Market, one of a few that accept EBT, is trying to help families who rely on food stamps to buy more fresh produce.
Currently, the Midtown Farmer's Market will match the first $5 spent with EBT and give you an extra $5 to spend at the market. The offer is good every week the market is running this summer - as they point out, that's an extra $40 in free fruits and vegetables every month.
If you are shopping with EBT, visit the Market's booth to buy tokens with your EBT card, and then the tokens can be spent at the market.
