The Bradenton Farmers Market is now participating in Fresh Access Bucks, a program that doubles the spending power of Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) recipients and increases their access to fresh and healthy Florida-grown produce. The Bradenton Farmers Market opened in October and continues through May 27, 2017, on Old Main Street (12th St. W) in Downtown Bradenton. Fresh Access Bucks, a program of the Florida Organic Growers, is a statewide incentive program designed to encourage SNAP recipients to redeem their benefits at farmers markets to purchase fresh and healthy foods directly from Florida farmers. Fresh Access Bucks matches what a SNAP EBT cardholder spends (up to $20) every Saturday at the Bradenton Farmers Market.
