Many Frugal Fun Places Below, Find Your Local AR Flea or Farmers Market & Go!
An extensive Arkansas Farmers Market directory is lower down this page. Please use the scroll bar to the right of the below list to find information about the many Farmers Markets and Flea Markets in the state of Arkansas.
By regularly visiting your flea or farmers markets you will likely be supporting your local economy, environment, and the small farm families that take great pride in the bounties of the Earth they produce.

Accepted Payment Options and Federal Assistance & Nutrition Programs - "WIC", "SFMNP", "EBT":
WIC Vouchers
WIC or "Women, Infants, and Children Program" is a Federal assistance program for postpartum, breastfeeding, or low-income women or infants and children found to be at risk for nutritional deficiency. Your Arkansas WIC agency may provide nutrition education, health care referrals, or supplemental food vouchers good at your local Flea or Farmers Market via your state's WIC Farmers Market Nutrition Program.
SFMNP Vouchers
SFMNP or "Senior Farmers Market Nutrition Program" is a Federally funded nutrition program designed to assist low-income senior citizens. Your Arkansas SFMNP agency provides qualifying seniors with coupons that can be used at eligible community supported agriculture programs, roadside stands, or Farmers Markets in Arkansas for purchase of "fresh, unprocessed, and nutritious fresh-cut herbs, fruits, and vegetables."
EBT or "Electronic Benefits Transfer" (i.e. Credit Cards or Debit Cards) and SNAP / Food Stamp Benefits
Of course cash is king at all Arkansas Flea Markets and Farmers Markets, so you can't go wrong by bringing plenty of "all-mighty Dollars" with you. But if credit cards are accepted, you have the added benefit of a Federal law which limits your losses due to fraudulent credit card transactions to only $50. And there may also be protection through your credit card company against disputed charges or quality of goods. Something to think about in case you happen upon a big ticket item like furniture, tools, or antiques. So plastic may be the way to go in some cases.
SNAP / Food Stamps Benefits
More and more farmers markets are starting to accept Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits - SNAP (or Food Stamps) via EBT. Contact your AR market ahead of time to see which may accept SNAP benefits and what details may be involved. Usually when paying with SNAP EBT, cash cannot be given back and only eligible SNAP foods can be purchased at the point of sale.
