There will be a second Farmer’s Market in Door County where you can use your FoodShare dollars this summer.
The United Way of Door County announced this week that it would be offering its token program at the Jacksonport Farmer’s Market this year in addition to the Sturgeon Bay Farm Market. Foodshare/Snap beneficiaries can exchange their funds for one-dollar tokens that can be redeemed for eligible items at participating vendors. By increasing access to locally grown produce, Community Impact Coordinator Shauna Blackledge says the token program is a win-win for everybody.
Blackledge says to look for the United Way of Door County tent at the Jacksonport Farmers Market on Tuesdays beginning May 17th and the Sturgeon Bay Farm Market on Saturdays starting on June 4th.
