Get SNAP Authorized:

Markets, CSAs, Farmers

Farmers' markets, CSAs, and direct marketing farmers can be authorized to accept SNAP customers and the accompanying Market Bucks (the $10 matching incentive funded by Minnesota). There's no cost to get authorized, and the card reader machine and transactions are provided free by the state of Minnesota.

Join us Saturday, April 4, 1-3pm to walk through the application process and share ideas on how our food farming communities can best promote this to our SNAP neighbors.

The Minnesota Farmers’ Market Association (MFMA) provides services, programs, resources, and leadership that strengthen and promote farmers’ markets across Minnesota and Tribal Nations. We envision vibrant, profitable, and professionally managed markets that cultivate thriving local food communities, expand access to fresh and culturally relevant foods, support the success of local food producers, and create opportunities for all people, regardless of ethnicity, age, gender identity, or economic standing.
