VENDOR APPLICATION
The Brooks Farmers’ Market is the first Alberta Approved Farmers’ Market to have a nutrition program.
The Market FOOD Money Program is a food insecurity initiative (putting food into hungry bellies) that supports farmers’ markets (bringing people to the market). Many have donated to this impactful program in our community. Food Vendors are the only vendors who can accept Market FOOD Money coupons for food items. They will be reimbursed 100% of the value of the coupons.
Thank you for protecting the integrity of this important program. Your participation—whether directly or as part of our market community—helps ensure it thrives.
Quick Facts Every Vendor Needs to Know:
What can they buy? Any but ONLY Food.
What if someone tries to use a coupon for non-eligible items? Kindly redirect them. If needed, notify the market manager.
Can vendors use coupons with each other? No. Coupons are only for participants to purchase food.
Vendors cannot give change for coupons, so you should attempt to provide portions equal to the coupons' $5 value.
