Tips & Advice

  • Stop at the farmers market table first to swap your credit card or SNAP/EBT for tokens, because vendors take tokens at their booths.
  • If you use SNAP, buy your fruits and vegetables with it, because Double Up Food Bucks matches what you spend on produce.
  • Make a day of it on the square, because A Hernando Dickens of a Christmas Festival runs on the same Saturday as the Christmas market.
  • Use the interactive market map to find the vendors you want, since stalls cover produce, meat, eggs, honey, baked goods, plants and crafts.
