I have tried to make your local Washington DC Scavenger hunt as easy as possible by providing the following information for all the major Farmers Markets in DC:

1. Washington DC Farmers Market Name
2. Market Address
3. Washington DC County
4. Washington DC Farmers Market Contact Information
5. Whether market is covered or not
6. Daily and Seaonal Operating schedule
7. 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 Washington DC 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 Washington DC SFMNP agency provides qualifying seniors with coupons that can be used at eligible community supported agriculture programs, roadside stands, or Farmers Markets in Washington DC 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 Washington DC 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 (once known as Food Stamps) via EBT. Contact your DC market ahead of time to see which markets 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.
