Our Farmers Market Specialists, along with Texas/Mexico Border Coalition and Grow North Texas, work with farmers markets across the state to increase the number of markets that accept the Lone Star Card/EBT and increase SNAP sales. Through partnering with community organizations, we connect with SNAP users to provide them information about their local farmers markets, share nutrition information, and work to alleviate barriers for them to access their farmers market.
(Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program)
Based on these statistics, we have plenty of room to grow when reaching our community of SNAP users and boosting farmers market sales.

Here are the expectations of the farmers markets and TCLF in the partnership. The MOU thoroughly explains the partnership and will be provided upon request.
We are offering this opportunity to support you at no extra cost! TCLF can maximize your efforts and minimize the amount of time you put into accepting SNAP and increasing sales.
