Customers at Crossroads Farmers Market who utilize federal nutrition benefits such as SNAP and WIC receive Fresh Checks matching dollars, which double their funds for fresh fruits, vegetables, and other agricultural products.
Here’s how it works: SNAP shoppers can swipe their Independence Card at the Crossroads tent, and we’ll match the amount spent up to $50 every week. WIC and senior shoppers can redeem their FVC and FMNP vouchers directly with the farmers, then get a matched amount (up to $50 every week) in Fresh Checks to buy more healthy food.
