Farmers Market Promotion Program (FMPP) is sponsored by USDA. The FMPP helps improve and expand domestic farmers markets, roadside stands, community-supported agriculture programs, and other direct producer-to-consumer market opportunities. The money goes to the organization running the market, not to individual vendors.
Funds can be used to build a website, run SNAP-matching programs, buy shared equipment, or market the season opening.
