Benefit Incentive Programs

The Greenwood Ave. Farmers Market is authorized by the State of New Jersey to accept SNAP/EBT, WIC, FMNP and SFMNP benefits and vouchers for all acceptable items. Customers using these benefits can take advantage of the following FREE matching dollar programs:

Good Food Bucks SNAP-Doubling Program:
In partnership with City Green, for every SNAP dollar used to purchase fresh fruits and vegetables, we’ll double your dollars to purchase more fresh fruits and vegetables, up to $20 per market day.

Greenwood Green:
Dollar for dollar benefit matching program sponsored by the Capital YMCA for any item purchased using SNAP, WIC, FMNP and SFMNP vouchers, up to $20 per market day.

This means a $20 purchase can potentially turn into a $60 purchase!
