The Midtown Farmers Market is a great place to use your SNAP/ EBT (food-stamp) benefits! When you spend $5 with your EBT card, you receive $5 in free Market Bucks*. Just visit the Market booth, swipe your EBT card, and you will receive one wooden token for every dollar you spend. You will also receive one free Market Bucks* coupon for the first $5 spent with EBT. The tokens and coupons can be used to purchase fresh fruits and vegetables, meat, cheese, eggs, baked goods and much more.
Midtown Farmers Market is located at 2225 E. Lake St., adjacent to the Lake St./Midtown Station of the METRO Blue Line. Market is open Saturdays 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. and Tuesdays 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. through the end of October.
*The Market Bucks incentive is primarily funded by the Center for Prevention at Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Minnesota.
