Farmers' Market Launches Incentive for Food Stamp Users
This is really great! A farmers market in California allows people to exchange food stamps for tokens to use to at the market. Now, they are rolling out an offer for anyone who spends $10 worth of these tokens to get an extra $5 in tokens for free.
I think this sounds like such a good way to allow everyone access to healthy, local food. And the extra $5 should help with the fact that some farmers market items can be a little more pricey than a grocery store.
Hopefully this is a new trend we’ll see growing. What do you think?

Here in MIchigan, most farmers markets participate in Double Up Food Bucks, so if you purchase 10 dollars worth of tokens, you get 20.
