About the Tours
In June, the Michigan Farmers Market Association will be hosting two Farmers Market Tours to show how farmers markets can accept Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits. The tours are an opportunity to observe and learn firsthand how accepting SNAP benefits in a farmers market setting can increase revenue for vendors, contribute to vendor recruitment and retention for the market and increase access to fresh, healthy food for your community.
*Market managers who have been certified through MIFMA’s Market Manager Certificate Program (MMCP) are able to receive 1 Professional Development Hour for Continuing Education.
These tours are supported by the Michigan Department of Health and Human Services (MDHHS).
