SNAP AT THE MARKET
Select vendors now accept SNAP & EBT at the Kingsport Farmers Market. We’re so excited about this because SNAP provides economic benefits to the community by helping people purchase items—like homegrown produce—they may not normally have access to.
How do you use SNAP at the market? It’s easy!
1. Visit the information booth at the Kingsport Farmers Market on Wednesdays and Saturdays between 8 a.m. and noon.
2. Swipe your SNAP/EBT card to receive wooden tokens to be used on eligible products at the market.
3. Use your tokens to shop at participating booths, identified by the SNAP/EBT logo in the photo.
