Multiply your 3SquaresVT/SNAP dollars with Crop Cash at your local farmers market!
When you spend 3SquaresVT/SNAP benefits at a participating farmers market, you'll receive extra money to spend on local fruits, vegetables, herbs, and culinary seeds and plant starts. Markets will match $10 or more of your SNAP benefits per day. So, if you were to spend $10 of SNAP benefits at the market, you can get an extra $10 of Crop Cash (for fruits/vegetables)!
Anyone who receives 3SquaresVT/SNAP benefits* is automatically eligible to get Crop Cash at a farmers market—there is no additional application for this program.
*Folks who receive their benefits as EBT Cash or Direct Deposit may still be able to receive Crop Cash coupons. Contact [email protected] for more.
3SquaresVT, also known as SNAP/EBT (formerly known as food stamps) helps limited-income individuals and families buy the food they need. Benefits are generally provided on a card that functions like a debit card, and are accepted at most grocery stores and many farmer’s markets. Here is a list of food items that SNAP/EBT can buy. For more information and assistance applying for 3SquaresVT benefits, visit the Vermont Foodbank website.
