Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program participants are eligible to double the amount they spend at the Sweet Home Farmers Market, up to $10 each week.
That’s an extra $40 a month, said Jan Neilson, manager of the market, which opened June 7 and runs through October.
The matching dollars also can be saved and used at the farmers market on a different day, perhaps when a favorite fruit or vegetable is in season.
