Celebrate Spring at the Market!

As the weather warms and the sun comes out to stay, many of us are beginning to envision our lush gardens and hoping to begin planting this month! If you are one of these people, this Saturday is the perfect time to come to the market to pick up bedding plants, including greens, herbs, flowers and more! If your not much a gardener, join us for breakfast or lunch, bring your kids to Martha’s Second Saturday Activity, and stay for live, local music!

Market Bucks Return

As a way to make it easier to purchase fresh, local meat and produce, we are pleased to be able to offer a 4th year of Market Bucks.Market Buck
Market Bucks is an incentive program which encourages EBT recipients to use their benefits at the farmers market. Customers making purchases with EBT cards can receive up to an additional $5 in Market Bucks each market day.
Here’s how it works: Once per day, when you use EBT to make a purchase at the market, you will receive up to an additional $5 as a Market Bucks coupon. The Market Bucks can be used in the exact same way as EBT and essentially double the purchasing power of that first $5.
This project was funded by the Minnesota Department of Human Services and by Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Minnesota.
