Abstract
In the early 2000, a farmers’ market based food access program called Crop Cash was implemented to support food and nutrition security of low-income households in Vermont. Through a cash-matching mechanism, when households who receive food benefits shop at participating Vermont farmers’ markets they can receive up to an additional $20 of Crop Cash coupons to spend on fresh produce. This paper will highlight the experiences and perspectives of farmers’ market managers in Vermont to investigate program benefits, implementation challenges, and resources needed by the program.
