Food stamps now accepted at farmers markets
Quaker Hill, Conn. – Teresa Schact and her husband run Hunts Brook Farm in Quaker Hill and sell a lot of their crops at the Waterford farmers market which accepts food stamps. A move she says has brought in more people over the years. “You know why do we farm because we want people to eat local and fresh and how to get more and get that to more people,” says Teresa Schact “The program allows for that." In addition to allowing food stamps through the USDA’s SNAP program folks can bring their state EBT card to farmers markets just like they would at Fiddleheads in New London which boasts only organically grown produce.
