SNAP-EBT at the Farmers Market
AEOA supports SNAP acceptance at four area farmers markets: Virginia, Hibbing, Cook, and Tower. We work with Minnesota Hunger Solutions’ Market Bucks and Produce Market Bucks to triple SNAP dollars at the famers markets, up to a $10 match. So a $10 EBT card transaction will give the shopper $30 to spend at the market! For more information on Market Bucks and to see a full list of all the markets that accept SNAP-EBT, visit https://www.hungersolutions.org/programs/market-bucks/.
Power of Produce
AEOA also supports Power of Produce (PoP) at four area farmers markets: Virginia, Hibbing, Cook, and Tower. The PoP program encourages children and seniors to try more fruits and veggies by giving them PoP tokens to spend each week at the farmers markets. The PoP tokens can be spent on any fresh fruits or vegetables. Just visit the market EBT clerk to pick up the tokens.
Here are the farmers markets where AEOA provides SNAP/EBT and POP services
