Maine Harvest Bucks

When SNAP shoppers swipe their EBT card at the market, they receive Maine Harvest Bucks, bonus vouchers that can be used on fresh fruits, vegetables, seeds, and seedlings. This program is facilitated and funded statewide by the Maine Federation of Farmers’ Markets (MFFM), and Kittery Community Market is committed to maintaining a dollar-for-dollar match for the 2026 season.
