If you receive SNAP benefits, our Green for Greens program doubles up to $50 of your food budget each week.
- How does it work?
If you have $50 of SNAP/EBT to spend, come by the yellow tent first and we will run your card for $50 and give you $100 in market tokens to spend on SNAP eligible foods.
- What if I only have a few dollars (or nothing) left on my card?
No amount is too small to double, we will give you $2 for every $1 of SNAP credit you have available. We will also match your cash, if your benefits run out for the month, show us your SNAP card and your food dollars will still go twice as far at The Corner.
- What can I buy?
So many things! Fill your basket with… Fresh, local fruit and veggies, meat (beef, chicken, pork, goat, lamb, rabbit), eggs, seafood, honey, baked goods, coffee beans, juices, fresh pasta, goat cheese, prepared foods that are not served hot (like chicken salad, a frozen casserole to heat and eat, frozen pulled pork BBQ by the pound, a chicken pot pie, shepherd’s pie, artisan soups that are flash frozen), food producing plants - anything from a rosemary plant to an apple tree, and seed packets to grow food.
- Is there a catch?
Nope. Just a couple of guidelines. Corner Market tokens: can only be used for SNAP eligible food, can only be used at our market, can’t be exchanged for cash, and never expire.
- Are vendors disappointed when I pay with tokens? Not at all. At the end of every market, our vendors turn in their tokens for cash. They are delighted to sell food to all of our customers.
When you choose to buy food at a farmers market, you support small local businesses and keep our farmers growing. The food is fresher and direct from the source. We appreciate your business! The Corner Farmers Market is a year-round market located at 2105 West Market Street in Greensboro. We are open every Saturday morning, rain or shine, from 8am-noon
