SCATV presents: Providing Farm Fresh Food to Our Neighbors in Need

About this segment: Union Square Main Streets staff and board of directors are looking to the community to help fund the SNAP match at the Farmers Market since federal funding is again not available. This program enables low-income families and other shoppers to better afford the fresh produce available at the Union Square Farmers Market through the summer.
