How to Participate
There is no sign-up necessary, children between the ages of 2-12 are welcome to stop by the POP tent to participate in the weekly activity. POP participants receive a $5 voucher each week of participation to spend on the foods of their choice at the market. These vouchers also serve to empower kids, by giving them the purchasing power to buy from farmers and local vendors at the market.
