SNAP/EBT Programs
The Plymouth Farmers Market offers SNAP/EBT-based programs for shoppers, including EBT Tokens, Market Bucks and Produce Market Bucks.
EBT Tokens
In the EBT Token program, a $1 token is issued when customers swipe their SNAP/EBT card to purchase grocery items that will be prepared at home, such as fresh or preserved produce, meat, eggs, cheese, breads and more. The tokens may not be used for items that will be consumed on-site at the market or for decorative items.
Market Bucks/Produce Market Bucks
In the Market Bucks and Produce Market Bucks programs, SNAP/EBT will receive a match of up to $10 when they use their benefit cards at the market. Market Bucks follow the same guidelines as EBT Tokens. However, unlike the tokens, Market Bucks have an expiration date. Produce Market Bucks can only be used for produce items, such as fruits and vegetables.
