Overview

Mission

Food From Farms increases access to food from local farms and farmers markets for kids, seniors, and those in need.

What it reported doing in 2019

Administering and Accounting for Skagit Valley Farmers Market Coalition food-insecurity programs, where vouchers are given to those in need which they can use to purchase fruits and vegetables from farms stands at participating, local farmers markets. In 2019, these programs include matching 100% of all EBT/SNAP dollars, providing vouchers to local food bank customers to be redeemed at Coalition markets, and providing children with Medicaid nutrition information and vouchers. Food From Farms also assured market managers are adequately trained and supported to run the programs and compensated clerks at each market for the same purpose. The Coalition included Anacortes, Bow, Concrete, Mount Vernon, and Sedro Woolley farmers markets.
