How can WIC and SNAP participants have easier access to farmers markets? How about a Pop-up Farmers Market?
This mobile farmers market in Portland that looks like a 20th buggy car or some type of a new bike. Although it looks strange, it may help the over 48,600 Latinos living in the area avoid living in food deserts by providing healthy food access.
Accepting WIC and SNAP, this fresh market allows members to even match dollar per dollar for food to encourage everyone to eat more fruits and vegetables.
Fresh veggies and fruit such as berries, green beans, and summer squash are available.
