Beginning Saturday June 9 the Saline Farmers Market is accepting
the Bridge Card for purchases at the market.
Patrons with a state issued Bridge Card can visit the Bridge Card
booth at the Saturday Saline Farmers Market to get tokens in $1 increments to
use for market purchases. The amount
requested will be subtracted from their Bridge Card and market tokens will be
issued to use at participating market vendors stalls. Look for a “Bridge Card Tokens Accepted Here”
sign in vendors stalls which will identify those who accept the Bridge Card
tokens.
The Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) / Bridge Card provides
financial assistance for food purchasing to low- and no-income people
and families living in the U.S. It is a federal aid program, administered by the Food and Nutrition Service of the U.S. Department of Agriculture, but benefits are
distributed by the individual U.S. states. It is historically and
commonly known as the Food Stamp Program.
Items that can be purchased with the Bridge Card are all foods
items as long as they are not hot, prepared foods that are meant to be eaten
immediately. Also included are seeds and
plants that produce food.
Tokens can be redeemed at the Tuesday Saline Farmers Market but can
only be purchased at the Saturday Saline Farmers Market.
We are very excited to add the SNAP program to the Farmers Market
this year. This program will provide low
income families the opportunity to buy local, fresh food, attract more
customers to our market and become one of the many Farmers Markets who are
participating in this program.
