Fresh ApproachThanks to the support of our dedicated volunteers, Fresh Approach and PCFMA have been making healthy food more affordable and accessible to CalFresh customers throughout the Bay Area. Our Market Match program offers farmers’ market customers an additional $5 free to spend on fruits and vegetables when they spend $10 or more using their CalFresh EBT card. Our incredible volunteers have helped to make this program a success by being available at many farmers’ market info booths to answer customers’ questions and to process CalFresh EBT transactions. Our original goal was to have 500 new CalFresh customers in 2013 and thanks in large part to the work of our volunteers, we met this goal by the end of May! If you see a PCFMA volunteer out at one of our markets, make sure you give them a big thank you for all of their hard work. Look for the friendly person in the green PCFMA Volunteer apron!
