Accepting SNAP Benefits At Farmers' Markets
 

Farmers Market Graphic
Scrip Demonstration Project
 

When it is not practical for individual farmers to obtain an FNS license to accept SNAP benefits using standard EBT technology, a farmers’ market sponsor can step in by getting one license that allows all eligible farmers in the market to accept SNAP benefits using one centralized Point-of-Sale (POS) device to issue scrip. 
 

Obtaining an Individual FNS License
 

Learn how individual farmers can obtain their own FNS license to accept SNAP benefits.

  Become licensed to accept SNAP benefits by the local FNS field office. For more information, call toll free 1-877-823-4369 or visit our retail application process page.
