NEAR Cash

The Cooperage Project and Wayne County partners have developed an incentive program for community members to shop at our local farmers’ markets. NEAR (Nutrition Education Awareness Rewards) Cash is a nutrition rewards program to support our local food system’s consumers and producers.

  • Attend cooking classes, farm tours, and more hosted by our partners to receive NEAR Cash vouchers.
  • SNAP/EBT card holders can convert $10 into NEAR Cash vouchers, and get a $10 match! Contact Ally Spaciano (call 570-253-2020 ext 6 or email Ally) to schedule an appointment or visit our Mobile Farm Market locations.
  • NEAR Cash is not redeemable for actual cash, and no change may be given for NEAR Cash purchases.
