Use these vouchers to buy fresh produce at any farmers’ market in Siskiyou County with an authorized farmer. \nDouble Your CalFresh EBT Benefits with Market Match\nCustomers who spend their CalFresh EBT benefits (also known as SNAP or food stamps) at the Siskiyou County farmers’ markets can use Market Match to double your food dollars for farm-fresh\, locally grown vegetables and fruits. The Market Match program helps make locally grown agricultural products more affordable by matching CalFresh benefits dollar-for-dollar\, up to $20\, with vouchers that can be redeemed at any farm vendor booth in the market.
