![]() Select counties across North Carolina also participate in the Senior Farmers’ Market Nutrition Program and WIC Farmers’ Market Nutrition Programs. This means, the $10 of benefits you spend, equals $20 in market scrip to purchase food at the farmers’ market! “Double Bucks” or Dollar matching programs allow the farmers market to match your EBT dollar with an additional dollar from the market up to a certain amount. Many markets are now able to offer additional incentives to stretch your EBT budget while shopping at the farmers’ market. Save extra tokens to use at your next trip. The tokens/vouchers are non-refundable, but can be used all season long. You may buy fresh fruits, vegetables, dairy products, baked goods, meat, eggs, fish, poultry, honey, jams/jellies, and even food producing plants! You cannot, however, purchase cut flowers or hot and ready to eat foods. The items you may purchase with EBT at the farmers’ market are the same as those at the grocery store.
