SNAP
The Ridgway Farmers Market accepts SNAP (Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program) at the market. The market is set up for EBT (Electronic Benefits Transfer.) Any customer wishing to use their EBT card should first visit the Market Manager tent. The Market Manager will then swipe the customer card and issue coupons for use at the Ridgway Farmers Market. SNAP vouchers may be used on fresh fruits and veggies, meats, cheeses, eggs, baked goods, jams, honey, and starter vegetable plants. They may NOT be used on ready-to-eat foods. SNAP is a federally funded, USDA nutrition assistance program.
