The River’s Edge Farmers Market offers SNAP & Link Match benefits.

When visiting the farmers market stop by the orange info tent. We’ll process your requested EBT amount and give you River Bucks to spend at qualifying vendors. Thanks to the Link Match program, you can also receive matching funds to be used towards fresh fruits and veggies, breads and cereals, meats, fish and poultry, seeds and plants which produce food for the household to eat, and dairy products. For example, if you spend $10 on your snap card, you automatically receive a free $10 through link match. So, $10 turns into $20!!

We are here to make things easy and accessible. If you have questions give us a call, send a message or stop on by the market for more details.

SPECIAL THANKS TO OUR SPONSORS!!

Our combined community efforts make this market the place to be every Thursday evening!
