Join us at your lunch hour to learn about how farmers can accept alternative forms of currency for their farm products. New and experienced farmers \u2013 come learn about the process of accepting WIC, SNAP, Maine Harvest Bucks, Maine Senior FarmShare program, and more at your farm stand or farmers\u2019 market booth. This is a great way to get low-income Mainers access to locally grown food. We will also speak about the Maine Harvest for Hunger Program and Maine Gleaning Network. We have a panel of knowledgeable speakers so bring your questions!<\/p>\n
