Jamestown – The Jamestown Community Foundation has recently awarded a $1,500 grant to the Jamestown Cooperative Farmers’ Market Association to assist them in implementing their EBT\/SNAP program for all eligible citizens, along with a “double your money” bonus for the first $10 those clients spend using their EBT cards. Those gift cards will be good for anytime during the 2024 market season. The Farmers Market has been a fixture at the Jamestown Civic Center parking lot in the summer\/fall of each year, on Wednesdays (5-7 pm) and Saturdays (9 am – noon ).  There are 11 area vendors who set up during each growing season.  Their array of merchandise has expanded over the years, now including fresh produce, grass-fed beef products, baked goods, jams and jellies, honey, fresh cut flowers, breads, bagels and mushrooms!  It’s always a good idea to shop early, as all of this merchandise is very popular.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Jamestown Community Foundation can be reached for information about the organization or its grant applications\/guidelines by going on-line to www.ndcf.net<\/a> and selecting Learn, then choose the Jamestown Community Foundation page.  You may also contact Barb Lang at 701-320-4570.  Donations to the Foundation can be mailed to the JCF at P.O. Box 2004, Jamestown, ND  58402.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
