SNAP / EBT / GSMM
SNAP / EBT enables low-income individuals and families to use their EBT card to buy eligible fresh and local products at the farmers market. This program gives low-income families better access to fresh foods, supports family farms and local producers, and directs tax dollars into the local economy. GSMM (Granite State Market Match) enhances the SNAP spending power by providing a dollar for dollar match to be used exclusively on locally grown fruits and vegetables purchases.
How does it work at the market?
1. Go to the NAP / EBT / GSMM and Debit / Credit tent located near the information booth (yellow building).
2. Choose how much you would like to spend that day on food purchases and swipe your EBT card for the amount tokens you want to spend on SNAP eligible items. Double your dollars 1-for1 with GSMM coupons.
3. Visit our vendors and shop for food items.
What food items are eligible to be purchased using SNAP / EBT?
Fruits, vegetables, meats, eggs, baked goods (wrapped, labeled and intended for home consumption), breads, dairy, maple and honey products, jams, sauces, seeds
