SNAP at Farmers Markets Boosts Local Food Access

Upstate New York’s farmers markets are transforming lives by accepting SNAP benefits—and doubling the value of produce purchases through Double Up Food Bucks. Families get more fresh, local food for less, while local farmers and small businesses thrive. These markets aren’t just grocery stops—they’re community hubs where neighbors connect, economies grow, and every dollar spent stays right in the local area. With support from the Farmers Market Federation of New York, over 400 markets across the state are making healthy food accessible, seasonal, and deeply community-rooted.
