How many farmers markets in Vermont take EBT?

11 Vermont farmers markets record SNAP/EBT acceptance out of 80 listed in total — about 14%.

How does EBT work at a Vermont farmers market?

Most markets run a central token system: swipe your EBT card once at the information booth for tokens that any participating vendor accepts. Some markets instead have individual vendors running their own terminals. Either way, EBT covers food items — not crafts, hot prepared food or plants that don't produce food.

Is my SNAP benefit doubled at Vermont markets?

Some Vermont markets take part in nutrition-incentive schemes that match SNAP spending on fruit and vegetables, often up to a daily cap. Participation is market-by-market and season-by-season, so check at the market's information booth.
