Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program

Starting this year OCRFM will be accepting EBT cards with SNAP benefits. It is important that all community members have access to fresh local foods that are affordable.  By accepting SNAP benefits at market along with Senior Coupons OCRFM is increasing the accessibility to local fresh foods.  Customers wishing to shop with their SNAP benefits can simply stop by the information booth and request the amount they'd like to spend and receive tokens as a market currency to spend with vendors.  This new program is made possible through two grant that OCRFM received this year.  One from the Department of Economic Development and the other from the Department of Agriculture.  To learn more about SNAP visit http://www.fns.usda.gov/snap/.
