 SNAP program offered at the Rose District Farmers Market
A bit about the market
We know you love the Traveling Barnyard every first Saturday of the month, so now we have expanded our kid activities at the market by kicking off our Little Sprouts program! Every second Saturday of the month, we will be offering a different free activity for the kids; from coloring pages, seed planting, to creating their own bird feeders!
Our Senior Farmers Market Nutrition Program will be accepting applications as of April 1st! This program provides qualifying seniors with a $50 card to spend on fresh fruits and vegetables! You can apply online at https://oklac.org/ebt. You may also call our Farmers Market Facilitator at 918-259-7000 ext 7421!
 Performances start at 9AM and continue until noon!
 As long as the rains do not create flood conditions in the fields, we should have strawberries at the market starting 4/26/25!
      
      
Throughout the season, the City of Broken Arrow will be rotating a booth for the various departments/divisions. We hope this gives the citizens a chance to ask questions or learn more about each department.
