Programs at the Blythewood Farmers Market
The Power of Produce (PoP) Club
The Power of Produce (POP) Club looks to transform your kids into market participants with educational activities, demonstrations, interactions with their local food growers, and challenges to try fresh market produce.
By participating in POP Club activities like the “Two Bite Club”, each kid will earn POP Bucks. Children are awarded for their efforts and may spend their bucks any way they choose.
POP club participation is a win-win for parents and children alike. Parents, witness your kids’ light-bulb moments as they interact with activities, food, and practices that champion a healthy lifestyle. Kids will learn while having fun, with the added bonus of becoming active market members.
Free and fun for all- the POP Club tent is where you and your little ones will want to stop before you shop, every market day.
Healthy Bucks
The Healthy Bucks initiative gives SNAP beneficiaries to access extra fresh fruits and vegetables by utilizing their SNAP benefits at the Blythewood Farmers Market.
Participants who spend a minimum of $5 using their SNAP EBT card receive $15 worth of Healthy Bucks tokens, which they can then use to acquire more fresh produce.
