BACKGROUND ON THE MARKET: OUR MISSION

The Lawrenceville Farmers Market is a program of Lawrenceville United. We are committed to increasing food access in our community, to growing local agricultural businesses for long-term sustainability, and providing a vibrant resource for the Lawrenceville community. Now more than ever, we are committed to making sure the LFM is:

  • helping to lower barriers to fresh, healthy food especially for low-income families, older adults, and individuals with food insecurity or low food access and;
  • supporting the development of a strong and sustainable local food system with farmers and small business owners through incentive programs, community education, and outreach in the neighborhoods we serve.

For more information on how you can help us make this possible, email our Market Manager at market@lunited.org.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs):

  • I receive SNAP benefits. Can I use them at the market? 
    • YES! You can redeem your benefits at our Info Booth. Thanks to our partnership with Just Harvest and the Food Trust, SNAP benefits will be matched with Food Bucks; you will receive $2 in Food Bucks for every $5 spent in EBT benefits – these can be spent for all fruits + veggies.

    • YES! Farmers Market Nutrition Program vouchers can be used to purchase fresh fruits and vegetables from the majority of our produce vendors.
  • I’d like to shop at the market but am in a higher risk population and have reservations about being near people. What can I do?
    • Please join us from 3-3:30pm. The first half hour of the LFM is reserved for our customers who prefer to shop in a masked environment. During the first half hour of the market all attendees are required to wear a mask.

    • YES! We offer shopping carts for our customers who would like to borrow one while they are at the market. Stop by the Info Booth to grab one and return it after you have finished.
