SNAP and WIC at the Market

The Market offers the SNAP (EBT Food Stamps) program at the Market. To help lower economic barriers to local, healthy food, the HLFM matches up to $20 each participant each week with HLFM Bonus Bucks. SNAP participants are encouraged to come to the SNAP tent at the Market to pick up the bonus $20.

You gotta have friends.... |
Food Drive at the Market - November 11 and 18 |
The Market continues to "glean" (gather together donated food from our vendors) to give to Casa San Francisco's food bank located in Milton, DE, and customers can purchase something fresh from a vendor and bring it to the HLFM table at the market to donate to Casa San Franciso's food bank. The HLFM and its customers want to give the food pantry a little bit extra for the winter. Here are the specific items that the food bank has requested: spaghetti sauce, pasta, peanut butter, jams and jellies, canned fruits/vegetables/soups, boxed cereal, powdered or shelf stable milk, rice, and beans. Please honor the HLFM's mission and the health needs of folk who use the food bank by providing healthy foods. These items may also be brought to the HLFM Table at the Market.
