BC Farmers' Market Nutrition Coupon Program - Grand Forks

The BC Farmers' Market Nutrition Coupon Program Fund provides opportunities for lower-income families, seniors and pregnant women to buy fresh, local food at BC  farmers' markets.

Community partner organizations provide coupons to eligible individuals and families. Coupons can be spent at all BCAFM member farmers’ markets that participate in the FMNCP, and can be used to purchase vegetables, fruits, nuts, eggs, dairy, cut herbs, meat and fish.

Each household enrolled in the program is eligible to receive a minimum of $27/week in coupons. The program runs throughout the summer months when produce is most abundant across the province.

The Grand Forks Farmers' Market is located in Gyro Park - Corner of Highway 3 (Central Avenue) & 5th Street across from Save-on-Foods, 7370 5th Street, Grand Forks. It runs Tuesdays and Fridays: 8am - 1pm from May to October. There is also an indoor market in the Grand Forks Legion, 9am to 1pm on Fridays from October to mid-December and then every other Friday from January to end of April.

The Boundary Community Food Bank , the Baby's Best Chance program of the Boundary Family Services Society and Holy Trinity Anglican Church are Community Partners for the program in the Boundary area.
