$15 SNAP Match Program

Mass Farmers Markets is pleased to announce that Kendall Square Farmers Market will offer a $15 match to all SNAP shoppers for the 2022 season.

Shoppers can swipe their SNAP or P-EBT cards for any amount at the market manager’s tent as they enter the farmers market to receive a dollar-for-dollar match, up to $15 per week.  Shoppers will receive the additional benefits as market tokens, that can be used to purchase SNAP eligible products with market vendors, including fruits and vegetables, meat, poultry, fish, dairy products, honey, jam, breads, seeds and plants. 

Examples of how the match works:

  • The shopper swipes $5 using their EBT card at the market manager’s tent, the market will match $5, and give a total of $10 worth of market tokens to the shopper.

  • The shopper swipes $15 using their EBT card, the market will match $15, and give a total of $30 worth of market tokens to the shopper.

  • The shopper swipes $25 using their EBT card, the market will match $15 since it is the maximum amount of match possible, and give a total of $40 worth of market tokens to the shopper.

This program helps individuals and families obtain the sustenance and nutrition they need during heightened levels of food insecurity due to COVID-19, as well as increase economic support for local farmers and food businesses.
