Farmers’ markets, and the fresh, locally grown food available there can be inaccessible to individuals and families who leverage food assistance programs
FAM helps to bridge the financial gap in a way that also creates community connections amongst an economically diverse population.
HOW IT WORKS
FAM patrons come to the farmers market and pick out their items from eligible vendors.
After identifying themselves as a FAM patron, the customer receives a receipt for their items.
FAM patrons process all of their transactions at a central location, where the match is applied.
Volunteers retrieve the purchased goods from the vendors and bring them to the FAM patron.
Vendors are reimbursed for the total amount purchased.
