This project is made possible through generous funding from NYC Council Speaker Quinn, Manhattan Borough President Stringer, USDA-FMPP and the NYS Department of Agriculture & Markets.

At a few markets some farmers have their own wireless terminal at their stand. Customers swipe their card when making the purchase from the participating farmers. Some of these farmers accept EBT and Credit Cards. Look for signs at the farm's stands.
