BISMARCK, N.D. – Agriculture Commissioner Doug Goehring has announced an enhancement to the interactive local foods map to allow farmers markets to indicate if they accept Supplementary Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) benefits at their market. The North Dakota State University Extension Family Nutrition Program supported the change to the map.
“The new information will help to increase access to local foods for all community members and connect them with North Dakota growers and producers,” Goehring said.
Farmers markets that accept SNAP benefits should update their profile on the map to show the SNAP function. Farmers markets not yet registered for the map can find sign up instructions at https://www.ndda.nd.gov/NDLFMAP.
Questions about the map should be directed to Local Foods Marketing Specialist Jenna Nieters at jnieters@nd.gov or 701-328-2659.
