The main market is open 5 days a week, but you must visit between Friday and Sunday to use the EBT token match program.

How the "Buy $10, Receive $20" EBT Match Works:

1. Visit the central Information Booth between 8:00 AM and 1:00 PM (Friday through Sunday).
2. Tell the staff you want to swipe $10 from your SNAP-EBT or SUN Bucks card.
3. You will receive your original $10 in standard EBT tokens plus an additional $20 in free matching dollars ($10 in Market Bucks and $10 in Produce Market Bucks). This gives you $30 total value.
4. EBT Tokens and Market Bucks ($20 total) can be spent on any SNAP-eligible food like meat, dairy, bread, and honey. Produce Market Bucks ($10 total) must be spent strictly on fresh fruits and vegetables.

Leftover tokens and Market Bucks can be saved and reused on any other weekend later in the season.
